Pundit’s anti-AI posts clash with undisclosed xAI stake

TL;DR Summary
Conservative podcaster Katie Miller spent months railing against AI tools like ChatGPT on X while privately owning more than $500,000 to $1 million in Elon Musk’s xAI, a financial stake she did not publicly disclose until a White House disclosure tied to her husband surfaced. FTC guidelines could require disclosure of such a financial motivation behind endorsements, experts say. Miller maintains she posts for the love of the game and wasn’t paid for posts, but the article notes her influence with the Trump administration and prior roles linked to Musk and xAI, highlighting broader concerns about influencer-finance conflicts in tech policy.
