Election Cycle

AI super PACs are emerging, mirroring crypto’s lobbying success, with groups like Fairshake and “Leading the Future” backed by Silicon Valley heavyweights. Meta also launched its own AI-focused PAC. While AI offers economic optimism, public concerns about job displacement and privacy are significant. These PACs aim to influence elections by promoting pro-AI candidates and policies, often framing AI leadership in geopolitical terms, particularly against China. Their substantial financial power faces potential public backlash and uncertain regulatory outcomes, as seen with New York’s RAISE Act.
