Anthropic and OpenAI poured $27 million into one House race, and both lost

When two AI labs pour 27 million dollars into one House seat, the technology has clearly stopped being just a product story and become a political one. The most interesting result is that voters shrugged, handing the win to a candidate who ran against both of them. That backlash is a warning that spending your way into politics can just as easily brand you as the thing people want to push back on.
