We recently compiled a list of the 15 AI News Making Waves Right Now. In this article, we are going to take a look at where FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:NOTE) stands against the other AI stocks that are making waves right now.
With Donald Trump having won the elections, it seems Elon Musk is going to be a powerful force in the administration. After all, X CEO has played an outsized role in his comeback, contributing millions to his campaign, serving as policy advisor, and even using his social media platform as a Make America Great Again (MAGA) advocacy platform.
Now that his efforts have come to fruition Max Tegmark, a leading scientist, who has previously worked with the world’s richest person says Musk’s influence could lead to tougher safety standards for artificial intelligence, as reported by The Guardian.

Tegmark says Musk’s backing of a failed AI bill demonstrated that Musk is still worried about the repercussions of uncontrolled AI development. The SB 1047 bill in California required companies to stress-test large AI models before releasing them.
Having frequently warned that such an unrestrained development can be catastrophic for humanity, Musk was one of the 30,000 others who had signed a letter calling for a pause on the development of advanced AI technology last year.
According to Tegmark, Musk could convince Trump to introduce standards that prevent the growth of artificial general intelligence (AGI), a term used for AI systems that match or surpass human levels of intelligence.
“I do think that if Elon manages to get Trump’s ear on AI issues we’re more likely to get some form of safety standards, something that prevents AGI. He might help Trump understand that an AGI race is a suicide race.”
– Tegmark, a professor specializing in AI at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Before Trump won the elections, Musk had predicted the development of artificial intelligence that would be smarter than the smartest human being by next year or by 2026.
“If you define AGI (artificial general intelligence) as smarter than the smartest human, I think it’s probably next year, within two years”.
– Elon Musk when asked about the timeline for the development of AGI.
