Sam Altman met Bernie Sanders in Washington to discuss public ownership of AI companies, sparking a rare bipartisan conversation about AI’s economic future. Sanders pushed for at least 50% public equity to fund a national AI wealth fund, while Altman supported the idea in principle but balked at the specific percentage. Meanwhile, Trump signaled AI execs are headed to the White House to ensure Americans benefit, noting his base shares economic concerns with Sanders’ voters. As Congress moves toward bipartisan AI regulation, Altman also met other officials, underscoring OpenAI’s outreach to policymakers.
