As a former Democrat, I was privy to the morning messaging calls from orgs like Third Way, The Democracy Alliance and others. Anyone who doesn’t see the Democrat party maneuvering to capture AI as a political issue and an opportunity to expand their vast bureaucratic web is blind or ignorant. Recall Sam Bankman-Fried was a vociferous Effective Altruist (ironic because they are neither) and largest donor to the Dem party.
