In short, Congressional Democrats after 2026 would only speed up the decentralization of AI by further persecuting American technologists.But they can’t stop AI anymore.It’s outside their grasp.See also this post below:Balaji (@balajis):AI OVERPRODUCTIONChina seeks to commoditize their complements.

And Republicans do want a military-friendly AI.But China wants to open source AI, because the Chinese make money from AI-enabled hardware instead. The rest of the world wants open source models as well.That’s likely where things land up, once model capabilities top out. America is essentially serving as the bootloader for AI, spending billions to give the world one last incredible gift before turning the lights out on ...
