Fox News(@FoxNews):The AI battle is heating up on Capitol Hill. The FBI says China is responsible for up to 80% of U.S. intellectual property theft, including AI, as lawmakers ramp up the debate over how to handle the fast-moving technology. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told Congress AI companies know it's in their best interest to make the technology work, while President Donald Trump and some allies have pushed back on calls from parts of the tech industry for tighter AI regulation. Critics, including Sen. Bernie Sanders and Sen. Chuck Schumer, are calling out the White House's approach. AI is also expected to be a major topic when Chinese President Xi Jinping visits the White House next week. @LucasFoxNews
