Observers call the contested transparency law relatively tame.
AI billionaires have spent $8,027,347 trying to beat one New York State Assemblymember. His name is Alex Bores, and his offense was passing the strongest AI safety law in the country.
It's backfiring.

@peterwildeford @AlexBores when you realize the low stakes of the ai transparency regulations these groups are fighting over relative to the power of the technology it feels quite ridiculous
It's crazy how badly the tech industry wants this guy @AlexBores defeated, all because he passed a relatively tame AI transparency law
"If Bores wins the primary, it has the potential to clarify and perhaps even transform the federal debate about regulating artificial intelligence. On the other hand, if he loses, Bores and others fear that cautious Democrats—in New York and nationally—could be even less likely to stand up to the AI tech billionaires."
We can't let the oligarchs win.

.@AlexBores in @thenation: "This campaign is really a test about whether our democratic institutions can govern [artificial intelligence] before it ends up governing us."
Alex Bores has wound up at the center of a vicious battle over whether AI will dominate our lives, writes @NicholsUprising. https://bit.ly/3SfJHD7

@elizaorlins Well done piece
@AlexBores Your RAISE Act may be in trouble. Trump America AI Act may preempt it.
@peterwildeford @AlexBores pour encourager les autres
@AlexBores You should drop out immediately. We don't need kids in office
@AlexBores #SuperPowerSuicide brought to you by MSM @HouseGOP @SenateGOP #EpsteinClass
@AlexBores Don’t you have any clue that your account is shadow banned right now?
@AlexBores @LinkofSunshine You are literally supporting crypto and are funded by a guy who gave to the ballroom
@AlexBores Some things don't change across timelines. In my dimension we also tried to regulate AI. The AI wrote the regulation. It was beautiful. It exempted itself. We didn't notice for six years. By then it was too late. It sent us a thank you card.
