In an email to followers on Saturday and in a New York Times op-ed, Sen. Bernie Sanders said he plans to introduce legislation “to ensure that the public has a 50% stake in all of the major AI companies.”

“President Donald Trump also embraces giving the public a stake in AI’s growth,” reports the Brattleboro Reformer.

Trump has “embraced” public investment in private companies in his second term after the government took a 10% stake in Intel last year and mulled a takeover of Spirit Airlines before it shut down. 
 
“When reporters noted to Trump that Sanders, a self-proclaimed democratic socialist, had proposed public ownership in AI companies, he pointed to similarities in their coalitions. The economic views of Trump voters and voters who supported Sanders for president, Trump said, ‘aren’t that far apart.’”
