🆕 post: States should be allowed to regulate AI because realistically Congress won't—Let’s not give AI a decade-long free pass from regulation. gabrielweinberg.com/p/states-shoul…

And DuckDuckGo’s CEO urges caution on blocking states from enforcing important AI protections in the Big Beautiful Bill.

This morning, we sent a letter to President Trump urging him to adopt a pro-competition regulatory framework found in the EU's Digital Markets Act. 🧵Here's why:

Big Tech wants Trump to kill Europe's antitrust law before it really bites. That would be a huge mistake — and betray his own pro-startup agenda. My take in Financial Times on why America shouldn't save Apple and Google from real competition:
