We are joined by Amba Kak and Sarah Myers West — co-directors of the AI Now Institute — to discuss their excellent new Landscape Report on Artificial Power. We discuss Trump's AI Action Day and his administration's use of AI as an alibi to justify further consolidating wealth and power into a few hands, while making vague promises about economic growth and technological progress, without actually delivering any material benefits to everyday people. We then get into the AI Now Institute's Roadmap for Action which lays out a bold, urgent, and practical policy agenda for creating and enforcing regulations on AI. ••• Artificial Power: 2025 Landscape Report | AI Now Institute https://ainowinstitute.org/publications/research/ai-now-2025-landscape-report ••• People's AI Action Plan https://peoplesaiaction.com/ ••• Come to Jathan's book launch in Melbourne on August 14th at 6:00pm!
