Leading the Future, a pro-AI PAC backed by Palantir-cofounder Joe Lonsdale, hit pro-regulation Democrat Alex Bores with attack ads over Bores' work for Palantir
“Leading the Future's goal is not actually to kill Alex's race. Their goal ... is to signal to legislators in other races, in other states, that if you step out of line in this way, this is what we're going to do to you.” @nancyscola https://www.politico.com/...
BOMBSHELL: Sam Altman, Marc Andreessen & Joe Lonsdale's $125M SuperPAC has a simple strategy. Destroy *anyone* who tries to regulate AI. They want to make an example of AI safety advocates so brutal that no politician dares touch the issue again. [image]
