The concluding sections of AI Valley analyze the shift toward an "accelerationist" political landscape. While the Bidenadministration proposed testing rules for safety, the Trump administration favors rapid development to maintain a competitive edge over China. This environment has led Sam Altman to retract his earlier calls for regulation. Instead, tech companies now advocate for "fair use" policies to train models on copyrighted works without compensating authors. Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has also pivoted to "open source" AI to challenge the gatekeeping of Apple and Google. Currently, accelerationists hold the advantage, viewing the trillion-dollar race for AI supremacy as a vital national priority. (8/8)1906 STANFORD
