AI Accountability Super PAC launches to make AI safety an election issue

Artificial intelligence may become one of the most powerful technologies humanity has ever created. America should lead. Leadership means more than building the most powerful AI. It means electing people who will keep it safe, secure, accountable, and under human control.

AI Accountability Super PAC is an independent expenditure-only committee. We will spend independently—ads, research, and voter contact—to elect candidates who pass a public five-question test on AI, and to defeat those who fail it. We do not coordinate with candidates. We do not write checks to campaigns.

The same technology capable of accelerating medicine, education, scientific discovery and economic growth can also create new risks to national security, employment, children, privacy, cybersecurity and public safety. Congress is already moving bills. Most voters have not been asked to judge their representatives on those bills. That is a political failure, not a technical one.

We reject both “stop AI” and “regulate nothing.” The country needs a better path: develop extraordinary technology, understand its risks, create sensible guardrails, hold people accountable, and keep humans in control. Candidates who will not say that out loud should not expect a quiet election.

In the 2026 cycle we will publish a federal AI safety scorecard, reserve independent media in districts where the record is worst, and tell voters the difference between theater and safeguards. If that work matters to you, contribute or volunteer.
