Ron DeSantis responding to my latest story on the wave of bills from Democrats seeking to regulate AI, including a new one from Adam Schiff on guardrails for the Pentagon's use of the technology:

I doubt Democrats will produce good policy re: AI, but Republicans have allowed them to capitalize on public concern about the power and influence of Big Tech by failing to adopt a sensible framework that will protect the public from the very real downsides of the technology. A policy that says transhumanists in Silicon Valley should be able to do what they want is not an acceptable approach, nor is it a politically viable approach.

SCOOP: VP JD Vance held a secret call with CEOs of giant AI companies including Elon Musk, Dario Amodei and Sam Altman.
Vance expressed concern with the potential of AI systems and impact they could have on local banks + other smaller businesses.
It’s an instance of the administration scrambling to decide what to do with AI.
