‘Make AI work for ordinary people’: Bernie Sanders wants to pay you $1,000 every year from a government stake in AI companies

Senator Bernie Sanders is introducing a bill to ensure AI works for ordinary people by granting Americans 50% ownership of the largest AI companies once they become profitable. This legislation would provide citizens with an annual payment of $1,000. Sanders argues that AI represents a public resource developed through the collective genius of humanity, justifying a government stake in these firms to distribute the financial benefits of the technology across the general population.
