Sept 15 (Reuters) - ‌U.S. ​Attorney ​General Todd Blanche on ‌Tuesday told reporters the ⁠Department of Justice ‌would investigate "anybody associated" ‌with AI if they violated the law.

"As ​far as AI is concerned, ⁠there's a lot of criminal ​laws," Blanche told reporters at the ​White House. "So ‌if anybody associated with AI ⁠violates criminal law, we'll investigate that."

Blanche ⁠added that he did not ​believe the role of the Justice Department was ‌to regulate AI.
