    Welcome to Fox News’ Artificial Intelligence newsletter with the latest AI technology advancements.

    • America’s multibillion tech boom comes into focus as 7 key states put it to a midterm test
    • Jeff Bezos reveals his vision for America’s next frontier — from AI to the moon
    • America’s new blue-collar job boom is one nobody saw coming — and it’s just getting started

    PEOPLE DECIDE: The rapid buildout of data centers powering America’s artificial intelligence boom is heading to the ballot box this November, as voters across the country weigh measures that could shape where and how the massive facilities are built. Voters will decide 34 data center-related ballot measures across seven states — California, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Nevada, Ohio and Wisconsin.

    NEXT GIANT LEAP: Amazon founder Jeff Bezos laid out a sweeping vision for America’s future Wednesday, telling Fox News the U.S. must beat China to the moon, artificial intelligence could help families get by with less work and data centers could one day operate in space.

    TRUST ISSUES: As artificial intelligence rapidly evolves to make financial scams hyperrealistic, cybersecurity experts warn that the best defense isn’t sophisticated detection software. It’s good old-fashioned human skepticism.

    ‘OUR CITY’: A Memphis City Council meeting descended into chaos Tuesday night after lawmakers postponed a vote on a proposed yearlong moratorium on new data centers, as protesters chanted inside City Hall, police cleared the chamber and a fight broke out in the lobby.

    FAMILY NIGHTMARE: A California mother and Navy veteran was having breakfast with her husband when a caller who cloned her daughter’s voice claimed to have kidnapped her.

    MIND GAMES: A top official at the Department of War discussed how artificial intelligence is playing a role in war readiness strategy, and said foreign adversaries are carrying out “psyop” operations to fuel the anti-data center and anti-artificial intelligence movement across the U.S.

    METAL MANIA: Investors have long prized gold as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty, but one of the world’s fastest-growing industries is now fueling a new intelligence is driving investment in advanced semiconductors, servers and the sprawling data centers needed to power the technology. That expansion also requires a range of materials used in high-performance electronics, including gold

    WIRED FOR WORK: Inside a sprawling Texas data center campus, blinking tower lights and rows of neatly organized cables power the technology Americans use every day. Keeping it all running, however, takes an army of electricians, mechanics, technicians and construction workers — and the industry says it needs more of them.

    TOMORROW’S TRADE-OFF: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in an interview on Sunday that the benefits of artificial intelligence are enough to justify accepting some risks and suggesting that the public should continue to have broad access to the emerging technology.

    CAN’T SAY: During a Monday New York City Council hearing, representatives from OpenAI, Google, Meta and Anthropic were asked to assure under oath whether AI agents will always comply with safety guardrails to prevent catastrophic harm.

    AI giants stop short of guaranteeing agents will always obey safeguards

    FACE TIME: Chick-fil-A is bucking a growing fast-food industry trend, with CEO Andrew Cathy saying the chicken chain does not plan to use artificial intelligence to take customers’ drive-thru orders.

    POWERING UP: President Donald Trump announced Sunday the creation of a new federal “Super Intelligence Force” tasked with coordinating the government’s efforts to keep the United States at the forefront of rapidly developing artificial intelligence technology.

    FAST TRACK: Workers in the U.S. who use artificial intelligence regularly in their job are seeing benefits like working more quickly or creatively, though a new study finds that those gains aren’t evenly distributed across the workforce.

    NEW TO CAMPUS: OpenAI on Wednesday announced that it’s adding a college planner tool to its ChatGPT for Teens along with new study features on the platform.
