Deep Tide TechFlow message. March 30, according to the Financial Times, a new pro-AI group backed by a Donald Trump (Donald Trump) advisor, David Sacks (David Sacks), plans to invest at least $100 million to support candidates in this year’s U.S. midterm elections in November. The industry is trying to stop calls for stricter regulation of this technology.

The planned spending of the “Innovation Council Action” initiative is an additional amount on top of what other pro-AI organizations have already raised nearly $200 million, and it will make policy regarding this technology a key battleground in the fight for control of Congress.

Last year, a political action committee called Leading the Future, supported by donors including Greg Brockman (Greg Brockman), co-founder of OpenAI, who has donated to Trump; venture capital giant Andreessen Horowitz (Andreessen Horowitz); and Joe Lonsdale (Joe Lonsdale), co-founder of Palantir (Palantir), raised $125 million to support pro-AI candidates.
