    They are influencing elections since 2015/2016. There’s really no surprise here.

    Cambridge analytica even made a talk in how they influenced the first trump election.

    Not like any other election before where tech companies had zero interests and just thought may the best team win.

      Yeah, for eleventy-bajillion dollars worth of AI credits. Why use pesky money, when you can pay in pretend currency from an overinflated system backed up by an endless trail of IOUs?
