Can't speak for the relative merits of the bill. To be honest it doesn't really matter, since it's a bad idea to use any American services, be it from big tech or from startups.
However, I do have issues with the characterization of small startups leveraging "AI" in the article. Vast majority of startups add "AI powered" both as consumer marketing and a fundraising method. Even if they do actually use ML powered features, it is likely these features would simply be part of their package and marketed something along the lines of "automated recommendation for configuring [X]". Many such features cannot even leverage public works since startups tend to focus on more niche use use cases of ML tech since it's difficult to competing around something like LLMs.
Something about their framing of startups just sounds off.
