Bernie Sanders unveils $7 trillion plan to give Americans control of AI industry
Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders unveils a plan to create a sovereign wealth fund that would transfer trillions from large AI firms to the public, financed by a one-time 50% tax on the stock of the biggest AI companies. The fund, potentially worth $7 trillion, would distribute annual dividends to Americans and establish a bipartisan Independent Commission for Democratic AI to oversee governance and influence corporate decisions.
