Silicon Valley is pouring millions into proAI PACs to sway midterms
"Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI President Greg Brockman are among the Silicon Valley veterans putting more than $100 million into a network of political action committees (PACs) that will advocate against strict AI regulations in next year’s midterm elections, reports The Wall Street Journal.
The new pro-AI super-PAC network dubbed “Leading the Future” aims to use campaign donations and digital ads to advocate for favorable AI regulation and oppose candidates that the group thinks will stifle the industry.
Both Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI were part of a push earlier this year to implement a 10-year moratorium on states’ rights to create their own AI regulations. The ban was ultimately struck down, but the AI industry continues to fight against a “patchwork of regulations,” which they say would slow down innovation and put the U.S. at risk of losing the AI race to China."
