AI billionaires are
buying our elections.
We're fighting back.

A small group of tech oligarchs is spending hundreds of millions to block AI regulation — and elect politicians who'll let them do whatever they want. We're on the road ahead, fighting for guardrails that protect everyone.

The problem

The road ahead is being blocked

Leading the Future and their allies are pouring dark money into elections — backing candidates who will gut oversight, block safety rules, and hand the keys to AI development to a handful of unaccountable billionaires.

Who's behind it

Meet the villains

The same people getting rich from unregulated AI are funding the campaigns to keep it that way.

Who they're backing

They didn't spend $125M on themselves. They bought politicians to do it for them.

Andreessen, Horowitz, and the Brockmans are the money. But money needs faces on ballots. Meet the eight candidates Leading the Future has already purchased — with more on the way.

Why it matters

What's at stake

Unregulated AI isn't just an abstract concern. Real people are already feeling the consequences.

Data centers

Massive energy and water usage in communities that never consented — with no environmental review required.

Child safety

AI-generated abuse material, manipulative algorithms targeting kids — and no legal framework to stop it.

Jobs

Mass automation without worker protections or transition support — displacing millions with no safety net.
