January 1, Elites Push AI While Ignoring Working Folks

Wyatt’s Take

• Tech billionaires are shaping AI in ways that may not serve ordinary Americans.
• Activists in California keep pushing their own agendas on these technologies.
• The voices of Middle America get drowned out in the rush for new gadgets and rules.

Big players in Silicon Valley, like OpenAI’s Sam Altman and backers such as Elon Musk, are moving fast with artificial intelligence. Left-wing activists in California lobby hard to steer how these tools shape our lives.

Some worry that regular people across the country are left on the sidelines. The direction of this new technology is often set by folks who live far from the realities of working-class families.

“Most people making the decisions about AI have never worked a factory job or run a small farm,” said one tech worker, highlighting the disconnect.

If these trends keep up, it could mean more control in the hands of the few, while heartland voices go unheard. Regulations and innovation should consider what helps everyday Americans, not just elites and loud activists.

It’s vital to keep an eye on who’s pulling the strings behind these big changes and demand a seat at the table for average families.

Stay involved and make your voice count as new rules and gadgets roll out. Speak up for fair treatment for regular folks first and foremost.

Middle America depends on common sense and a fair shot. Letting distant elites set the rules for technology risks leaving hardworking families further behind. These new tools should serve all Americans, not just the folks with money or the loudest voices in big cities.
