Bernie-backed lefties lost house primaries in NY-12 (Bores) and NY-17, but won in NY-7, NY-10, and NY-13. That’s a respectable win rate and seems promising if you want government action against AI companies. It’s a shame Alex Bores didn’t make it, but he should have an easy enough time getting his newly-elected allies to support his bill.
AFAICT the hard part is getting the larger body of non-left politicians to sign onto harsh AI restrictions when most of them take money from those companies. I suspect the softest target is datacenter construction, because datacenters have been bad neighbors to a lot of people of all political persuasions.
