Why Democrats Are Terrified of AI

A graphic novel based on the essay “Why Democrats Fear AI (And Why They’re Right To)” by Brivael Le Pogam.

Tuesday night, the votes came in. Data centers were on 41 ballots in 10 states. The industry won exactly once. By morning, Bernie Sanders wanted a national moratorium and Democrats wanted to subpoena AI executives. The official reason was power bills.

Le Pogam, CEO of Argil AI, thinks the real reason is much older. It goes back to a prison cell in 1920s Italy. This isn’t a story about machines. It's a story about ideas.

The term “Red-Green Alliance” refers to the union of Communists and Islamists to achieve political outcomes.
