Andreessen Horowitz is basically the venture capital version of an evil mastermind in a bad sci-fi movie 🎬🤖, investing in dystopian tech that even Black Mirror would reject. They're apparently on a mission to make "bleak" the new "innovative" while shaping AI policy with the same finesse a cat uses to knock things off a table 🐱💥.

Check candidates to see who’s backing them, or explore individual companies to see where they’re directing their political spending. If you’re heading to the polls soon, look at whether the candidates on your ballot are receiving industry support — and if so, how much and from whom.

#AndreessenHorowitz’s Rising Influence Over Trump-Era #AI Policy
#SiliconValley’s richest #venturecapital firm emerges as a “lobbying juggernaut” for minimal AI regulation.
Sounding board is firm’s chief #lobbyist, #CollinMcCune. The firm, colloquially known by the shorthand #a16z for the 16 letters between the A and Z in its name, arguably has veto power over any AI-related proposals, according to one former #WhiteHouse official.

"In terms of the libertarian bent, those intentional political actors like #PeterThiel were very intentional about it. They created their own #mediaecosystem. They created #Substack—they, meaning #AndreessenHorowitz is big investor—& paid to have content on there that would drive users to their own media. They took over culture.
I want to be wrong. But, yeah, they want to make sure [marginalized groups]don’t have power, and that’s signified by having Nazis on a platform."

If the USA's national security is imminently in danger via Tiktok - let's do this ...
1) Pass legislation in April 2024, ordering ByteDance to divest the app by Jan 2025.
2) Delay the deadline for divestiture 5 times! That is 10 months so far.
3) Line up some number of investors, 4,5,6, we are not sure how many, including Abu Dhabi-based state-owned investment firm MGX (huh!) to take over operating TikTok in the USA.
4) License a copy of the app’s algorithm - likely a violation of Chinese law
5) Re-train the algorithm - good luck with that!
6) Set the value of TikTok @ $14B - WWWHHAAATTT - that is way TOO LOWSounds like a plan! Finally, we will sign a worthless piece of paper and tell the Chinese government what we are going to do! Ya, this is going to work and protect USA's national security.
