Facebook’s parent company, Meta Platforms, announced on Aug. 26 that it would launch a new political action committee (PAC) in California to endorse candidates, regardless of party affiliation, who support artificial intelligence (AI) innovation and a more lenient stance on regulation.

The tech giant is launching the Mobilizing Economic Transformation Across (Meta) California super-PAC, which will back candidates for state offices who favor AI development over strict regulation, a Meta spokesperson told The Epoch Times.
