TOP-PPP POLLING: Voters in @JayObernolte's (CA-23) and @RepLoriTrahan's (MA-3) districts oppose their push to weaken and preempt AI safety laws.
Their bill would let Big Tech wipe out state child safety, civil rights & consumer protections. 🧵

I have said exactly this before and still believe it to be true
this is why the labs are pushing visions of mass unemployment and replacing the white-collar workforce
it's not because the models can do it
it's because they have to in order to make their economic model work and to keep raising money
the only way to keep raising hundreds of billions of dollars is to sell everyone on the idea you're going to demolish a massive chunk of the labor market
otherwise it doesn't work

It's almost as if NOT creating and funding a politically-toxic super PAC was an option on the table.

💪 🍎 New York just passed the strongest youth AI protections in the country, UNANIMOUSLY. Shoutout to the lawmakers in both chambers who stood with families and refused to let Big Tech write the rules 👏 👏

This is absolutely morally bankrupt stuff from Leading the Future and a timely reminder of how their brand has become politically toxic.
People like @JVlasto, @NathanLeamerDC, and @ZacMoffatt should be ashamed of these tactics.
A few months ago, I found an anonymous sockpuppet account linked to the OpenAI/a16z super PAC. Now, @TaylorLorenz and I have uncovered two more — and they're even more brazen than the first.

this is depraved and the Dems who refuse to renounce @LeadingFutureAI's support and money need to answer for this.

Altman's actually made a bunch of political donations this cycle — totalling about $38k.
Small amounts, and all donations were made last year, but an important detail.

Shut this down. Preemption is a nonstarter! @RepLoriTrahan

🚨 Hearing Obernolte-Trahan AI preemption text circulating in advance of public release at 11am.
- Preempts all state laws touching AI development. States retain the ability to regulate AI deployment. This is the a16z proposal, to the letter, which civil society (labor, civil rights, kids safety, AI safety advocates) have opposed all along. It's the industry wish-list.
- 3 year sunset
- Rehash of much of Obernolte/Lieu bill (to bury the controversial preemption provisions in 300 pages of uncontroversial text)
Game on.

👎 58% are less likely to back a candidate who weakens those laws.
👎 66% are less likely to support one who waters down chatbot protections.
637 likely voters, May 19-20, MOE ±3.9%

NOT GREAT: 51% of Trahan's constituents have serious concerns about her backing policies supported by the same Big Tech executives funding Trump's campaign and ballroom.
