The new super PAC network, called Leaders for the Future, will use funds raised for online election and advertising campaigns. This is to promote policies that are beneficial to the development of artificial intelligence, while opposing candidates who are said to want to tighten control over this technology industry.
Earlier this year, both Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI participated in an effort to call for a 10-year moratorium on states' separate AI regulations. Although this proposal was not successful, the technology world continues to Oppose overlapping regulations, worried that it will hinder innovation and leave the US behind in the AI race.
The AI-backed advocacy group hopes to adopt the model of Fairshake - a super PAC network that was once assessed to have contributed to Donald Trump's victory. This approach is also said to be in line with the policy orientation of David Sacks, an AI and cryptocurrency consultant at the White House.
