And now you have the AI industry spending tens of millions and

contributions to super PACs and candidates supporting an extreme, I'm not saying they're wrong necessarily, but it's an extreme point of view, which is no state regulation of AI, limited federal regulation.

What's the check on that, Beverly?

What's the check on they're using their money the way the First Amendment allows them to do to change the contours of the public regulation and public debate about how much there should be controls on what AI can do?

I agree with everything you said, but Hama, there is no competition for supporting candidates on both sides of the AI debate.

There's no one going to give a dollar to a candidate to say, regulate AI, or am I wrong?

Is there such a group or such a group of rich people who want to support candidates who are for regulation?

In the history.

In the history of the world.

I always hearken back of the failure of members of Congress in particular, the executive branch as well, but focus on members of Congress for a moment, and governors to deal with social media.

We've had decades where people have said, as you referenced earlier, harm to kids, right?

There needs to be some ability of parents to have help from the government to deal with this because the companies don't want to do it.

They'll pretend they do, but they don't.

Here's the problem that I see, and I'm asking you both if you see a solution for this.

This is such a complicated topic.

I'm spending a ton of my time on it.

I'm reading about it.

I'm talking to smart people.

Even the smartest people I know, with few exceptions, constantly ask me questions or say, I don't know the answer to that, or people don't really know the answer to that question.

If you're a member of Congress or a governor, you're busy.
