I worked at the White House as a tech advisor.

Ten years ago, AI was exciting to people.

They couldn't wait to use it.

They couldn't wait to adopt it.

But they've seen the job displacement.

It's hard to love AI when companies are putting out announcements saying, because of AI, we're laying off jobs.

Congratulations to us.

People don't like to hear that.

They don't like to hear about data centers coming to the community and making them pay for the energy costs and energy infrastructure.

So AI has a PR problem, but they've earned it because of the way they've talked to communities about AI.

And so what we need to do is work collaboratively with government.

I think Congress needs to get more involved than it has already when it comes to safety, national security, and communities.

The news doesn't stop on the weekends.

Hi, I'm David Gurra.

Join us every Saturday and Sunday for the new Bloomberg This Weekend.

On Saturday mornings, we put the past week's events into context, examining what happened in the markets and the world.

Watch us on Bloomberg Television, listen on Bloomberg Radio, stream the show live on the Bloomberg Business app, or listen to the podcast.

This is a really complicated, intense, complex attack carried out by a nation state against a company that just wasn't expecting this kind of thing.

These hackers exploited an old vulnerability to get in.

They somehow had access to pretty deep confines within the corporate systems, and then they wiped data from their kind of perch in there.
