Silicon Valley investors and executives have formed a political network, "Leading the Future," seeding it with more than $100 million to promote artificial-intelligence interests in Washington. Backers include venture-capital firm Andreessen Horowitz and Greg Brockman, president of OpenAI, alongside other tech entrepreneurs. The group says it will finance a constellation of super PACs and nonprofit organizations aimed at heading off proposals for stringent AI regulation. Modeled on the crypto-industry PAC Fairshake, the new network plans to spend heavily in the 2026 U.S. midterm elections to support candidates it sees as receptive to continued rapid deployment of AI technologies.
