Ro, you just gave a nice little stump speech. Congrats. I'm talking about how AI can be used to make government more efficient, less expensive and provide an option, where it makes sense , to private enterprise. Enabling more of the revenue you collect from taxpayers to go directly to the people who need it. Ask your GenZ and neediest constituents, if AI could reduce spending in your state and improve the quality of services offered, with some percent of those savings being deposited in their bank accounts annually, would they approve of the government using AI ? You know the answer. By focusing on technology that can allow government to provide better services at a lower cost, which AI will be in a position to enable, only then can you help provide for people who need help and support. AI is new, and not easy to implement. Which is why your state and the federal government should be creating programs to give new grads, who know or can learn AI, jobs to work with existing staff to find ways to decrease costs and improve efficiency. It's an investment that will pay off. And as far as all the things you want to subsidize, from homes to childcare to healthcare , you could take every dollar from every billionaire and trillionaire in your state and probably every state and territory, leave them broke and then eat them, and it wouldn't cover for a year, the cost of what you want to do But Since I know healthcare, let's start there and see how serious you are about Medicare for All ? Who runs it and how do you choose that person? Right now the proposed legislation from jayapal and sanders says ," at the discretion of the Sec of HHS" What do you think would be happening right now if that had been passed ? I'll tell you the same thing I tell Republicans who think removing government and regulation from any market will make that market bigger and more efficient ... Ideology is not a strategy

So 2024. What both parties miss is that AI can be a great government vs business equalizer. If government hires people willing and able to learn how to use the same AI available to everyone, from any number of domestic model makers, it has the opportunity to serve Americans, adequately at worst, more productively and effectively , if done well and transparently The more efficient government is, the harder companies have to work to outperform it. That makes for more opportunity. What both parties have to realize is that the problem that will accelerate in this new world is crony capitalism. Both parties excel at giving our taxpayer money to their friends. Like all new technologies, AI will create new pockets of wealth that will try to buy our politicians. From both parties. The more transparency we require in government, the more we respect the right of the people to challenge that largesse, the more we restrict the ability of politicians to receive dark money , and reward their friends, the better the quality of life will be across the country. Whether you like it or not, AI has changed everything, except , our government , our politics and our politicians. Which have not changed at all. So here we are. Talking about parties and politicians that are thinking in the past. Like it’s still 2024. That’s a problem for all of us.

Incentives drive behavior. @RoKhanna is smart, and his incentive is to pander to his base for votes, rather than follow logic and take a position that benefits society. Stop voting for this BS and his position will change.

I am highly confident society will derive greater benefit if that capital is in Elon’s hands than in the hands of the government.

Those who celebrate @elonmusk's $1 trillion fortune need to be reminded of a simple and vital truth: That there is a fundamental tension between extreme wealth and the very possibility of democracy.

Rubio: President Kennedy announced that we were going to put a man on the moon. We did it. We are a nation founded on doing what no one else dared to do. And at some level, that's what this whole company, what UFC has been

Sarah Drory. (and the @RoKhanna team who understood good ideas don’t just come from the top). 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

New reporting shows the Trump Administration turned the Situation Room into an “Epstein war room.” The Situation Room is meant for national security matters, not pedophile coverups. Trump is focused on protecting himself—not YOU.

Buttigieg: Nowhere in the Constitution does it say that there have to be nine Supreme Court justices. That one doesn't even take a constitutional amendment. It just takes a readiness to set up a court that fits this country.  We could have 13 seats matching the district structure of the federal judiciary, but also a process that makes it less partisan. We cannot have partisan warfare every time there's an opening on the court

“I will tell you, over Israel, over Epstein and over Platner, Ro Khanna has inspired deep ire,” says @MarkHalperin about senior Democrats’ antipathy toward the progressive congressman from Silicon Valley, who’s emerging as a Democratic presidential contender. “I’m not talking about casual ire,” Mark says, “but deep ire on the part of many people I know. Are they gatekeepers to the nomination? Traditionally, many of them are — political operatives, elected officials and donors — but maybe Ro Khanna doesn't need the traditional folks.” @RoKhanna @LarryOConnor @melissadderosa @2waytvapp
