The AI Oligarchs Don't Want You Reading This

New York Assemblymember Alex Bores, a Democratic candidate for NY‑12, is confronting a $10 million super‑PAC funded by AI industry leaders Greg Brockman, Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz. Bores, who authored the state’s RAISE Act—the nation’s toughest AI safety law—promises federal legislation covering child protection, data privacy, deep‑fake labeling, grid‑friendly data centers, workforce upskilling, and an AI dividend. He argues that without federal rules, AI benefits a handful of billionaires while exposing the public to risks. Polls show 80 % of Americans favor AI safety rules even if they slow progress.
