Former 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang said he is not ruling out a 2028 run, stating, "I get asked every day, and I will say my case has aged very well." Yang built his 2020 campaign around the argument that AI and automation would destroy millions of jobs, proposing the Freedom Dividend, a $1,000-per-month universal basic income for every American adult. Since then, AI job losses have intensified across Big Tech firms including Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft. Yang received an endorsement from Elon Musk on Aug. 10, 2019, and said he would accept another endorsement from Musk, noting, "I don't agree with him on every single thing." On taxing AI, Yang cited Dario Amodei and Sam Altman, stating, "It makes zero sense that you'd have AI, which compares itself to electricity, and then not tax it and not regulate it." Regarding AI job loss, Yang said, "We're just in the first or second inning," and recounted a public company CEO who told him, "I'm going to fire 30% of my workforce and my revenue is going to go up 200%."
