Can Democrats use their midterm gains to pass meaningful AI legislation? Come 2027, alongside affordability and accountability, regulating artificial intelligence is top on the list for many Democrats — and a potential area for bipartisan cooperation. But President Trump has warned lawmakers not to “kill the golden goose.” What can Democrats actually get done? Texas Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX- 35), and California Rep. Sam Liccardo (D-CA-16), join Kara to talk about the coming debate over AI legislation. They break down bills like The Frontier Act, as well as proposals focusing on workers, safety and privacy. They also discuss where they can find common ground with Republicans and each other, how to think about the AI race against China and whether Congress can keep pace with AI development and the technologists propelling it forward. __ Subscribe: https://goo.gl/FRleYo Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
