A16z razkriva načrt lobiranja: vrzite denar tehnološko naprednim politikom – CryptoInfoNet

Venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) is hoping to push pro-crypto and AI regulation forward with seemingly new strategy: Throwing money at politicians.

“If a candidate supports an optimistic technology-enabled future, we are for them. If they want to choke off important technologies, we are against them,” Napisal Ben Horowitz, one of the firm’s founders, in a Dec. 14 post, adding:

"Vsak peni, ki ga doniramo, bo šel v podporo podobno mislečim kandidatom in nasprotnim kandidatom, ki želijo uničiti napredno tehnološko prihodnost Amerike."

Horowitz said it would be the “first time” a16z pursues the lobbying route to promote tech-friendly politicians. However, it reportedly held a fundraiser for a New York congressman in October 2022, po v Forbes.

Horowitz, in particular, highlighted blockchain-based technologies and artificial intelligence as two technologies that can make for a better world.

Decentralized technologies “will create a fairer, more inclusive economy” than what the centralized Big Tech firms have achieved, Horowitz noted, while AI “has the potential to uplift all of humanity” to a standard of living never experienced before.

Avalanche, Coinbase, Dapper Labs, Lido Finance, Nansen, OpenSea, Uniswap and Worldcoin are some of the cryptocurrency startups that a16z has invested in.

Horowitz je poudaril, da ni povsem proti regulaciji: »Visokokakovostna regulacija lahko industriji omogoči, da uspeva, hkrati pa ščiti potrošnike,« vendar smo vedno znova videli, kako »politizirana regulacija« ubija industrije, je dejal.

»Najboljši dnevi Amerike so pred nami, če bomo obdržali svoj globalni tehnološki položaj. Primarna stvar, ki lahko to spodkoplje, je napačna regulativna politika.«

Horowitz said “big tech” firms have been well represented in Washington D.C. but are more concerned with “preserving their monopolies” than advocating for fair regulation.

The tech-focused investment firm Napisal its own “techno-optimist manifesto” in October, which drew criticism from across the board for sharing several far-fetched opinions.

Eno od mnenj a16z je bilo, da bo "vsako upočasnitev AI [z regulacijo] stala življenja."

Finance columnist Jemima Kelly of the Financial Times was one of many who disagreed, utemeljitvijo that “unrestrained technological ‘accelerationism’ is a bad idea.”

More than 2,600 tech leaders and researchers, such as Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak signed a petition to “pause” AI developments in March 2023, sharing concerns that AI can pose “profound risks to society and humanity.”
