Congratulations to @CTATech's Brian Markwalter on being reappointed to the @FCC's Technical Advisory Council. The TAC plays a key role in advising the Commission on topics like 6G, AI and spectrum use. 10/1 will be the first meeting. docs.fcc.gov/public/attachm…

This is wild. AI data centers are reshaping construction labor. Electricians and carpenters are flooding into apprenticeships as Google and Meta are pour money into training. Installation jobs now pay 42% more than similar work elsewhere!

Funny how the “AI kills jobs” narrative ignores what’s actually happening on the ground. Data centers are creating a once-in-a-generation boom for skilled trades with overtime, apprenticeships, and six-figure careers. Build more.

1/ We're calling on Senate leadership: schedule a floor vote on the Clarity Act ahead of August recess. American builders, institutions, and consumers are waiting for the certainty that only passage can deliver.

The bipartisan work is done. The House has acted. Key stakeholders are on board. Now the Senate must decide: will the new generation of financial tech be built in America or somewhere else? It’s time to bring the CLARITY Act to the Senate floor. Read CTA’s letter below.

Great to see the White House engaging directly with the startup community at @ycombinator. America has the world's greatest startup ecosystem. Maintaining that means listening to the entrepreneurs building the next generation of tech. More of this please. 🚀🇺🇸

Great conversation this weekend at @ycombinator Startup School with @lutherlowe on tech policy, AI, the importance of policy frameworks to support startups & little tech, plus my new report Science: A New Golden Age. Thank you @garrytan!

don't forget to follow John Coleman (@FreeSpeech_AI), who has started writing a really helpful weekly update of major breaking AI policy developments, especially those involving the interesection of AI and free speech issues. I wish I would have thought to do this years ago:

It’s time for Congress to hear from America’s crypto voters. Tell the Senate why the Clarity Act matters to you and urge a floor vote before the August recess. Write your letter at ClarityForAmerica.com 🇺🇸

"How fast a country adopted new technology over the last 200 years accounts for at least 25% of why some nations are rich and others aren’t today. The Ottomans got the printing press eventually but eventually cost them a lot."
Julia Willemyns@jujulemons

I've been spending my weekends thinking about AI populism. Sam Altman's home was attacked. A councilman found bullet holes in his wall and a note reading 'No Data Centers.' Political assassinations are in, which is hardly a good sign. AI is coming for the credentialed class. @Peter_Turchin warned this would produce a downwardly mobile elite that turns insurgent. White-collar elite losers are the new Luddites. Why did industrialisation happen in England but not Austria or Russia? English elites owned the coal under their estates and wanted the machine to run. Francis I and Nicholas I blocked it because their elites had everything to lose. Can a coalition of elite losers stop AI where the Luddites failed? Depends whether your country's political economy looks like Nottinghamshire in 1812 – or Vienna in 1830.
