OpenAI- and a16z-linked Leading the Future spent $8.2M defeating “AI safety” candidate Alex Bores in NY-12, only for him to lose to a candidate with a similar platform. Backlash from AI’s intervention in that race was likely why they backed off in the general election.On the other side was the Anthropic-linked “AI safety” Public First PAC network, which claimed a “crushing blow” to the “anti-regulation” PACs. But of the $29.2 million they spent, only about $10.9 million ended up helping winning candidates (37%).#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #USpolitics #USpol #CitationNeededNewsletter
