Sen. Bernie Sanders introduced the American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act, proposing a nationwide sovereign wealth fund funded by large AI companies (with a 50% government stake) that would distribute annual payments to U.S. citizens—initially around $1,000 per person—while potentially funding public priorities like healthcare, education, and housing as the AI industry grows.
