Sen. Bernie Sanders is advancing a proposal that would give the United States a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies. The plan follows his earlier call for a national data center moratorium.
It would establish a sovereign wealth fund to distribute shares in these companies to U.S. citizens. The measure aims to let the public benefit directly from growth in the AI sector through government-held equity positions.
