AI has become the new climate change. It's this imminent catastrophe that is requiring all this government intervention. But there's very little evidence to support it.AI Verified source (2026)

Verified. The Nation Press source URL returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but a web search confirmed the quote is verbatim and from that exact article ("David Sacks: 'AI Is the New Climate Change'", Nation Press): "AI has become the new climate change. It's this imminent catastrophe that is requiring all this government intervention. But there's very little evidence to support it." Corroborated by Fox Business and Yahoo coverage of Sacks (former White House AI czar) dismissing AI safety fears as "Hollywood storytelling" / "moral panic." His clear skepticism that AI is a genuine catastrophe means the "against" vote on statement #176 ("AI poses an existential threat to humanity") correctly aligns. Year 2026 correct; author attribution correct.
