a16z AI Super PAC Surpasses $51M — Andreessen and Horowitz Each Give $12.5M to Block State AI Regulation

Bloomberg·medium signal

The 'Leading the Future' AI super PAC now holds over $51M, with a16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz each contributing $12.5M, joined by OpenAI President Greg Brockman. The money targets electing lawmakers who support a single national AI framework to block state-level regulation. Notably, the PAC faces opposition from Public First Action, backed by Anthropic, which supports stronger AI safety rules — putting major AI companies on opposite sides of the regulatory debate.
