Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon struck up an unlikely alliance at Tuesday’s artificial intelligence-skeptical “Pro-Human Assembly 2026,” which largely held despite notable disagreements over China.

Bannon spoke directly after Sanders’s fiery denouncement of AI development and Big Tech leaders’ stranglehold over the revolutionary decisions involved in the matter. The right-wing firebrand held on to Sanders’ denunciations of tech “oligarchs,” using much of the same rhetoric.
