Over the past four years, largely steered by Kamala Harris, the White House has balanced a pro-innovation, anti-risk approach to AI, gaining Silicon Valley's support and helping ease credible concerns over the technology's potential dangers. Trump and JD Vance — whose background is in Big Tech finance — want to strip America of AI regulation, leaving prospective technology entrepreneurs at the whim of corporations without safety measures.
The Biden administration’s approach to AI is driven by a woke and oppressive ideology, using fears of existential threats not to protect people, but to maintain centralized control over transformative technology. Instead of using AI to lower public spending, Democrats seek to impose totalitarian "equity" goals, pushing a left-wing, radical agenda under the guise of safety.
America must wake up to the very real existential risk that AI poses to the world if we let it slip out of our control. As Big Tech and the Pentagon continue to push for AI research at a breathtaking pace, there is little proof that we have the capacity to protect society from the host of plausible AI dangers if the technology is pushed too far, too soon. AI can and will be a force for good if developed at a sensible speed with appropriate safety measures in place, but it is up to us to recognize and mitigate these threats before it's too late.
