SCOOP —

A new super PAC is afoot, funded by some people in the AI industry, to challenge the first super PAC from Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI executives.

$50 million is being raised, likely from Anthropic execs and AI safety advocates, to fight back.

There must be zero tolerance for violence — of any kind — against the brave men and women in uniform who selflessly serve our communities and our country. The shooting of National Guard members in Washington, D.C. is horrific and unacceptable.
