[Partisan Divide Emerges in the U.S., Federal AI Regulation Consensus Unlikely Anytime Soon] Odaily Planet Daily News: Trump's investment in AI has nearly reached the limit of what a politician can achieve, while the Democrats' internal conflicts over AI have also reached the extreme for a political party. This significant divide makes it almost unimaginable to achieve a federal consensus on AI regulation this year, or even possibly until early 2029, regardless of who gains control of Congress. In a speech on Sunday, Trump dismissed safety warnings from AI giants as 'many negative forces,' though it remains unclear whom Trump was referring to. Trump's 'AI accelerationist' allies, including Silicon Valley venture capitalists, believe these safety warnings are tactics by dominant players in the field to secure regulations favorable to themselves. On the other hand, Congressional Democrats are coalescing around the urgency of the issue but lack equally clear proposals on what actions to take. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries stated that his caucus will meet on Tuesday to debate what steps to take regarding AI. Meanwhile, former President Obama is privately urging Democrats to prioritize AI as a top issue. Democratic Representative Greg Casar, however, hopes to directly ban superintelligence and pause advanced AI development. (AXIOS)
