Recently, Joe Biden signed an executive order over AI. Tech experts like Elon Musk have been urging Congress to restrict artificial intelligence, because of the great risk it poses to society.
Instead, Biden ordered federal agencies to begin using AI in their “day-to-day operations.”
Donald Trump seems to know what Biden is trying to do. In a recent speech, he blew the whistle on Biden’s plans. And he is vowing this one thing if he is re-elected.
From The Post Millennial:
In the statement, Trump said, “Just this week, Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary even admitted that they are weaponizing artificial intelligence to target American citizens for political speech.”…“When I’m re-elected, I will cancel Biden’s artificial intelligence executive order,” Trump added, “and ban the use of AI to censor the speech of American citizens on day one.”
Donald Trump claimed Biden’s order on AI would be used by the administration to “target American citizens for political speech.” The former president vowed to rescind that order if and when he is re-elected as president.
Biden has a tarnished track record on free speech. Elon Musk and a host of independent journalists revealed how Democrats in the government, along with the Biden administration, colluded with social networks to censor the speech of conservative Americans.
Many believe the DOJ is wrongly prosecuting conservatives involved in the events of January 6, 2021. Some have revealed these civilians are being treated worse than hardened criminals. Some critics claim this is because they are Trump supporters who doubted the results of the 2020 Election.
Republicans formed a House committee to investigate Biden’s “weaponizing” of federal agencies against his political enemies. Even former Attorney General Barr said that top federal officials use their power to pursue political objectives.
What would federal agencies like the FBI, DOJ, and DHS do with artificial intelligence–if they could? Would the federal government use AI to further erode Americans’ privacy rights? Would they use it to ban speech they disagreed with?
Trump is raising the alarm on what Biden might want to achieve with this powerful and largely misunderstood technology. Experts like Elon Musk warned that AI could devastate jobs and society as we know it.
Congress has yet to pass legislation to limit the development of this technology. And President Biden seems to be full steam ahead in allowing powerful federal agencies to use AI to their advantage.
Key Takeaways:
- Donald Trump accused the Biden administration of wanting to use AI to “target American citizens.”
- The former president vowed to end Biden’s order on AI if he is re-elected to office.
- Biden ordered federal agencies to use AI in their “day-to-day operations.”
