“As populist pushback builds against the AI industry and data centers that power it, Republicans who have cheered the AI boom are scrambling to find a new identity as middle-ground pragmatists,” Semafor reports.

These Republicans’ rebrand also involves a bid for the high ground by attacking Democrats with more nuanced positions on data centers.”
