lawmakers to impose more restrictions
According to a report from The New York Times in the first half of 2024, over 100 tech leaders from Silicon Valley were lobbying Congress at that time, urging lawmakers to impose more restrictions on China’s AI sector. Among them were Palantir CEO Alex Karp and Sequoia Capital managing partner Douglas Leone. Palantir, a leading U.S. data analytics and AI company, is also a major defense contractor for the U.S. government and is rumored to have assisted the U.S. military in locating and killing Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. The New York Times reported that this lobbying effort from Silicon Valley not only sought to push Congress to limit China’s progress in the AI field but also aimed to improve AI regulations, increase technology research and development funding สล็อต เว็บตรง
