Grassroots coalition asks politicians to choose voters over Big AI's $140M machine
QuitGPT-led pledge targets Leading the Future's push for lighter regulation ahead of the midterms
A coalition of over 50 advocacy groups is urging US political candidates and officials to refrain from receiving support from Leading the Future, a super PAC network worth more than $140 million. The Stop Bleeding the Future campaign, led by QuitGPT, aims to counter the influence of Big AI on US politics and elections. The coalition is particularly concerned about Leading the Future's efforts to defeat common-sense laws intended to protect American citizens and its backing from influential tech figures, including OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman.
The campaign is soliciting pledges from candidates and officials to reject Leading the Future's support and publicly denounce its anti-regulation stance. The coalition believes the rise of AI is causing widespread concern among Americans, with job losses being a major worry. The pledge has already garnered support, with Pat Ryan, representing New York's 18th Congressional District, expressing his pride in joining the effort to protect American people from the potential harms of unchecked AI technology.
