美国共和党得州参议员特德·克鲁兹警告称,美中之间的AI竞赛正充斥着“有组织的”宣传战,随着中期选举临近,这场竞赛已成为重大辩论议题。
近几个月来,数据中心和AI政策成为国会以及美国家庭厨房餐桌上的热议话题。但身为参议院商业委员会主席的克鲁兹对福克斯新闻数字频道表示,近期出现的诸多反对数据中心的声音,都受到了一场资金充裕、协调有序的运动的操控。
“这和我们此前看到中东国家资助反水力压裂运动的原因如出一辙,”克鲁兹说,“如果他们能说服美国民众‘不要开发本国油气资源,直接从我们这里购买’,那对他们而言再好不过,对我们却极为不利。数据中心问题也是一样的道理。如果他们能让美国人相信‘你们不希望本地建数据中心,只想依赖中国提供AI技术’,那对中国来说正中下怀,对美国却是灾难。”
美国参议员特德·克鲁兹(共和党,得州)于2025年5月8日周四在华盛顿国会山参加参议院商业、科学与运输委员会听证会。出席作证的包括OpenAI首席执行官山姆·奥特曼、超微半导体公司(AMD)董事长兼首席执行官苏姿丰、CoreWeave联合创始人兼首席执行官迈克尔·因特拉特,以及微软公司总裁布拉德·史密斯。(德米特里·弗里曼/《华盛顿邮报》)
中国专家警告:北京想让美国人——而非中共——传播其言论
目前尚无证据显示中国政府为数据中心政策向美国提供直接资金支持。但今年6月,OpenAI宣布封禁一批疑似源自中国的ChatGPT账号,并表示这些账号曾在社交媒体上发布评论和图片,声称数据中心推高了美国民众的用电成本。
OpenAI在一份声明中表示,该公司已关停“两批疑似源自中国的ChatGPT账号”,这些账号利用我们的模型开展明显的隐蔽影响力行动,通过宣传叙事试图操控围绕美国AI及更广泛科技政策的合法辩论。
克鲁兹称,制定政策确保美国赢得AI竞赛,是“当今美国面临的最重要的单一经济问题”。

“如果中国获胜,AI将专注于间谍活动、宣传、控制与监视,因为这就是中国共产党的行事逻辑,”克鲁兹说,“这将体现他们的价值观。他们会利用AI试图管控你们。如果美国获胜,我希望AI能体现美国的价值观。我希望AI能反映言论自由、个人主义、自由企业和隐私保护,而非管控与强权。”
克鲁兹称,反对AI发展和数据中心建设是“民主党方面的主流立场”。这位连任三届的共和党议员表示,民主党人的立场与包括Anthropic在内的大型科技公司的诉求一致,他称这些公司希望豁免反垄断法规,并“与政府勾结”以掌控AI发展。
支撑“保守派”反抗特朗普核心议程的隐性左翼网络
克鲁兹将这一立场与左翼意识形态以及被称为“有效利他主义”的新兴科技哲学联系起来。
“这些来自有效利他主义阵营的人都是极端左翼分子,他们想利用AI推行其左翼意识形态,”克鲁兹说,“我们目前看到的部分情况是一场利益攫取,经济学中有个古老概念叫寻租,即大型企业通常会游说政府‘给我优惠政策,巩固我的地位’。如今我们看到大型AI公司也在游说政府:‘不如让我们来执掌政府,由我们来制定规则,这样就没人能与我们竞争了’。”
华盛顿特区资本研究中心的调查研究员帕克·塞耶上周对福克斯新闻数字频道表示,有效利他主义与他所谓的“AI末日论”运动有关联。
Facebook联合创始人、亿万富翁民主党大捐助者达斯汀·莫斯科维茨及其妻子卡里·图纳是有效利他主义运动相关组织的主要资金支持者。莫斯科维茨于2008年离开Facebook。
这对夫妇创立了Coefficient Giving(前身为Open Philanthropy),据该组织介绍,他们仍是该机构的“主要资助者”。图纳担任该组织主席。
Coefficient Giving表示,其人工智能相关工作已迅速扩张,2024年已承诺向AI安全、安保及领域建设投入1.68亿美元,2025年投入3.51亿美元。该组织称,2026年其向AI政策宣传投入的资金有望超过10亿美元。
在2021年的一份资助申请说明中,该组织表示其旨在“为Coefficient Giving关注的多个领域的项目和活动提供资金——包括有效利他主义、全球灾难性风险、生物安全、用于认识论的AI、预测及其他领域”。

2015年,Coefficient Giving发起了“尾风项目”,由莫斯科维茨资助的该组织发起“号召创始人启动雄心勃勃的AI安全倡议”。

The senator says foreign influence and ‘effective altruism’ groups are shaping the AI policy debate

Cruz says China is exploiting AI fears as America races for tech dominance
Sen. Ted Cruz told Fox News Digital that the battle over artificial intelligence and data centers is being shaped by propaganda and influence campaigns as the U.S. competes with China for AI leadership.

America’s AI race against China, which has become a major point of debate as midterms approach, is a race filled with “coordinated” propaganda, warned Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
In recent months, data centers and AI policy have been debated in Congress and at the kitchen tables of American families. But Cruz, who chairs the Senate Commerce Committee, told Fox News Digital that much of the new opposition to data centers is being manipulated by a well-funded and coordinated campaign.
“It’s the same reason we saw Middle Eastern countries paying for anti-fracking movements,” Cruz said. “Because if they can convince America, ‘Don’t develop your oil and gas, just buy it from us,’ well, that’s great for them and terrible for us. The same is true on data centers. If they can convince Americans, ‘You don’t want data centers here, you want to just rely on the Chinese for AI,’ that’s great for China, and it’s terrible for America.”

CHINA EXPERT WARNS BEIJING WANTS AMERICANS — NOT THE CCP — TO SPREAD ITS MESSAGE
Direct funding from the Chinese government into the U.S. on data center policies has not been revealed. However, in June, OpenAI announced it had banned ChatGPT accounts believed to have originated in China, and said that the accounts were generating social media comments and images alleging that data centers are raising electricity costs for Americans.
OpenAI said in a statement that it shut down “two clusters of ChatGPT accounts likely originating from China that OpenAI banned after they used our models in support of apparent covert influence operations that promoted narratives in an attempt to manipulate a legitimate debate about American AI and wider tech policies.”
Cruz called the effort to craft policy to ensure the U.S. wins the AI race is “the single most important economic question facing America today.”

“If China wins, AI will be focused on espionage and propaganda and control and surveillance, because that’s the Chinese Communist Party,” Cruz said. “It will be their values. They will use AI to try to control you. If America wins, I want American values to be reflected in AI. I want free speech and individualism and free enterprise and privacy to be reflected in AI, not control and power.”
Cruz called opposition to AI advancement and data centers the “dominant position on the Democratic side.” The third-term Republican said the Democrats’ position is aligned with that of big industry players including Anthropic that he said want exemption from antitrust laws and to “get in bed with government” to control AI development.

Cruz associated this position with leftist ideology and the emerging tech philosophy known as “effective altruism.”
“These folks from effective altruism are all hardcore leftists, and they want to use AI to push their leftist ideology,” Cruz said. “Part of what we’re seeing is a money grab, where there’s an old concept in economics called rent seeking, which is big companies typically go to government and say, ‘Give me a benefit, entrench me.’ We’re seeing the giant AI companies going to government saying, ‘Hey, why don’t you put us in charge of government and let’s set the rules so no one could compete with us.’”
Parker Thayer, an investigative researcher at Capital Research Center in Washington, D.C., told Fox News Digital last week that effective altruism is associated with what he called the AI doomerism movement.

Facebook co-founder and billionaire Democratic mega-donor Dustin Moskovitz and his wife Cari Tuna have been leading financial backers of organizations associated with the effective altruism movement. Moskovitz left Facebook in 2008.
The couple founded Coefficient Giving, formerly known as Open Philanthropy, and remains its “main funders,” according to the organization. Tuna serves as its president.
Coefficient Giving says its artificial intelligence work has expanded rapidly, with $168 million committed to AI safety, security and field-building in 2024 and $351 million in 2025. The organization says it is on track to commit more than $1 billion to AI policy advocacy in 2026.
In a 2021 grant application description, the organization said it seeks “to fund programs and events in a variety of areas of interest to Coefficient Giving — including effective altruism, global catastrophic risks, biosecurity, AI for epistemics, forecasting, and other areas.”

In 2015, Coefficient Giving launched “Project Tailwind,” an initiative where the Moskovitz-funded organization issued a “call for founders to launch ambitious AI safety initiatives.”
