The Trump administration is taking a firm stance on artificial intelligence regulation. States with AI laws deemed as hindering American tech dominance could face consequences—specifically, potential withdrawal of federal broadband funding. This move signals that Washington views AI regulation through a lens of national competitiveness. The policy reflects growing tension between innovation-friendly approaches and stricter regulatory frameworks as the U.S. races to maintain its technology edge globally.

Another big stick diplomacy... Federal funding bottleneck, this move is indeed ruthless.

Whoa, using internet disconnection to pressure the state government to loosen AI regulation? That's a pretty harsh tactic.

Now it's settled, using federal funds as chips to bribe the state government... a typical centralized approach.

With a wave of the federal big stick, do all state AI regulations have to give way? This logic is really... under the guise of innovation, anything goes.

pulling federal funding over ai regulation? that's basically a coercive governance mechanism—no merkle proofs needed to see the game theory here lol. innovation vs safety is a false dichotomy tbh, we've known this since the whole defi summer wars. states should be able to audit their own consensus rules without federal penalty.

Federal funds as a weapon—this tactic has been used in crypto before, but this time it's targeting state governments.

Using federal funds as chips—this tactic is quite effective... But frankly, it's still a struggle for interests.
