I disagree.

On this topic, I’m seeing too many ideological and uninformed claims.

It is hard for many aspiring AI startup founders to rationally and neutrally assess the AI landscape, pros and cons.

It’s also what makes companies realize there are 49 other states, and nearly a couple hundred companies. California has a rare zeitgeist of tech and universities, but nothing that can’t be reproduced elsewhere with enough dollars and promises

I suspect this was vetoed more for reasons of not wanting to handicap California in the "AI race" than anything else.
