AI Investor in Congress Walks Tightrope | Albany News

from Albany News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Congressman Pat Ryan, a vocal critic of AI and congressional stock trading, faces a tricky conflict: he holds a major private stake in Socure, an AI identity verification firm he supports regulating, while also owning shares in Tesla and Amazon. His office defends the Socure investment as pre-Congress and non-active, but his recent sale of OnSolve shares—reported late—adds scrutiny. As he campaigns for re-election in a safe Democratic district, his stance against a kids’ online safety bill, calling it a “gift to Big Tech,” underscores his push for stronger tech accountability, even as his own financial ties raise eyebrows.
