"Andreessen's firm holds stakes across the largest private AI labs, positions that would be directly affected by Fed policy on AI."

Reading the tilt
WHAT DANA CAN AND CANNOT PRINT
5 of 9 ties point at AI capital or AI firms; the panel's charge is to judge AI's economic impact.
All 3 employment ties were current as of the body's formation date. Nobody has moved since; if anyone does, the dossier updates.
No member has a labor-side or AI-skeptic tie on record. Absence of a tie is itself a finding, but it can only be printed as absence, not as intent.
1 tie (Sharma's equity) is inferred-only and stays out of the story until a filing lands.
