AI hate is bipartisan and no national-level politician is dumb enough to throw public money at them.

Trump loves him some AI bros, though. And could easily "justify" dumping shitloads of public money into them because using AI in the military (bad idea in the first place) makes AI a "national security priority".

Trump can't spend that kind of money. Despite Congress bowing to him, they still hold the power of the purse.

If they actually opt to use it. Which is a big fat fucking if.

Also, Trump might just steal it from somewhere. (Where has all that Venezuelan oil money gone?) And who's going to stop him? The Supreme Court has already ruled that he can do basically anything he wants.
