A pro-AI super PAC, backed by Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI President Greg Brockman, has targeted New York Assembly member Alex Bores, who is running for the state\u2019s 12th Congressional District. The PAC, named Leading the Future, was formed with a commitment of over $100 million to support policymakers who favor minimal AI regulation. Bores, the chief sponsor of New York\u2019s bipartisan RAISE Act, aims to implement safety measures for AI labs, including safety plans and disclosure of incidents. The legislation is awaiting Governor Kathy Hochul\u2019s signature. Bores has engaged with AI firms like OpenAI and Anthropic during the bill’s drafting. The PAC’s leaders, Zac Moffatt and Josh Vlasto, criticized the RAISE Act, claiming it could hinder American competitiveness and economic growth. Bores argues that states can act as policy laboratories to address AI regulation swiftly, contrasting with slower federal action. He emphasizes that AI regulation should not limit innovation but establish trust in the technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
