The $27 million Al proxy war over Alex Bores ends in a draw
In a competitive Democratic primary for New York's 12th Congressional District, Alex Bores narrowly lost to Micah Lasher despite a $27 million proxy war between AI companies Anthropic and OpenAI over his AI safety legislation. Bores, who authored the RAISE Act implementing guardrails on frontier AI companies, faced opposition from a $100 million super PAC funded by AI industry interests, highlighting growing tensions between AI safety advocates and major tech companies.
