Leading the Future is affiliated with the nonprofit Build American AI, which Axios describes as a dark money advocacy "offshoot" operating alongside the super PAC.[6] NBC News states that the network’s efforts are modeled after the pro-cryptocurrency group Fairshake. Josh Vlasto, a former advisor to Fairshake, is a top official at Leading the Future.[4] In response to the creation of Leading the Future, former members of Congress Brad Carson and Chris Stewart co-founded the super PAC network Public First, aiming to counter the group’s influence.[7]
