Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) — Chair, Senate Commerce Committee
In our latest episode (which is a classic from 2023), Ask a Pol asks:
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) — now America’s Secretary of State — came out of the AI forum just ahead of you and he’s worried about putting constraints on American generative AI, because those regulations wouldn't apply to China and others. Is that still your thinking?
Key Cruz:
“I think if the Democrats push through restrictions on innovation and AI it would be disastrous for America,” Sen. Ted Cruz exclusively told Ask a Pol founder Matt Laslo upon exiting a classified, all-Senate AI national security forum in 2023.
