Weird, I thought that policies such as improving the uptake of asset-backed commercial paper(1), loosening restrictions on beneficial owner(2) anonymity in shell corporations(3), and even protecting network marketing(4) companies from innovation-unfriendly regulations would be far bigger vote getters than this.

“The reality of generative AI is you’ve got to have a foundation of cloud computing,” AWS Vice President of Worldwide Public Sector Dave Levy, whose compensation relies on him successfully growing Amazon's computer rental income, told Nextgov/FCW in a June 26 interview at AWS Summit. “You’ve got to get your data in a place where you can actually do something with it.”

It's always so tedious when these little conflict of interest notes are left out of articles.

I applaud your optimism that most people can do this without AI but have you gone and met people? Most people are not that capable of producing torrents of shameless bullshit as conscience or awareness of social and/or professional costs rear their head at some point.

We were all here for the historic moment where "alleged gropers" really came into their own as a political donor demographic.

Well, minimum 32 years, as presumably there would be some inbox time and drafting time on either end, misunderstandings and subsequent discussion being so critical to avert when followups take a while.

I came here for his full-throated support of Apple Music staying installed no matter what and I am so sorely disappointed.
