Artificial Intelligence (AI) may be the most important scientific development of the next few decades. Goldman Sachs predicts it could boost global GDP by 7 percent. AI is already used in many fields, and others worry that entire job sectors could be wiped out. The media have shown remarkable sensitivity to those worried about being replaced rather than dismissing them as conspiracy theorists. That may be because journalists are among those whose jobs may no longer be necessary.
Even if Large Language Models (LLMs) replace biased journalists, it means nothing if they use biased data. This has happened with search engines. Sometimes it’s harder than before to find what you’re looking for because companies sabotaged their own products for political reasons.
ChatGPT is biased. It says white privilege “refers to the societal advantages that white people have in some societies, particularly if they are unaware of them.” As for blacks, while “affirmative action may provide certain advantages to black individuals and other minority groups in specific context, characterize[ing] this as ‘privilege’ oversimplifies the issue and does not take into account the broader context of systemic racism and inequality.”
Nonetheless, the race grievance industry is upset about AI, and the New York Times, Time, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation dutifully repeat its claims. “Who is making sure the AI machines aren’t racist?” asks the Times. Someone must, because reality is racist, and unfettered AI will report politically incorrect facts. There are not enough blacks in the field, so we will make new jobs for them policing racism while others build the models.
Luckily, the Biden Administration is here to save us. A new Executive Order on AI requires that it be used for Advancing Equity (equity, not equality). Irresponsible AI can worsen discrimination and other abuses in justice, healthcare, and housing. The Biden-Harris Administration had already published a Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights and issued an Executive Order directing agencies to combat algorithmic discrimination. The new EO will :
- Provide clear guidance to landlords, Federal benefits programs, and federal contractors to keep AI algorithms from being used to exacerbate discrimination.
- Address algorithmic discrimination through training, technical assistance, and coordination . . . on best practices for investigating and prosecuting civil rights violations related to AI.
- Ensure fairness throughout the criminal justice system by developing best practices on the use of AI.
Rep. Yvette Clarke (D-NY) says bias in AI will be the “civil rights issue of our time.” That means it will be the next excuse for DEI and the next weapon for imposing costly egalitarianism fantasies on business. The Executive Order also suggests that “biased” AI could get censorship the government has already imposed on social media. There can be no “best practice” for crime-fighting AI if it imprisons habitual offenders, many of them black.
This will be another attempt to ban pattern recognition. “Providing guidance” to landlords, contractors, and others means preventing them drawing conclusions from facts. The government will force people to adopt its delusions and will cripple new technology in order to propagate egalitarianism. Almost anything can be declared illegal under civil rights law, and could result in “civil rights violations.”
AI could prove a boon for cultural creation, allowing dissidents to make games, graphics, videos, and even voiceovers that could compete with major companies. This could be a brief false dawn, similar to internet free speech. We’ve already seen this with graphics AI; users make politically incorrect images, journalists wail, the AI censors itself. For example, Bing Image Creator will not draw you a picture of “two angry Black men chasing a white woman.”
However, attempts to restrict AI in the entertainment industry could be a good thing. It and the media are two of our most powerful opponents. Anything that challenges their power is good for us.
In the meantime, almost anything “experts” oppose is likely to be good. We are the people who have the most to gain from decentralization, open systems, real free speech, and limited corporate power.

AI sucks. I didn’t have to look that up.
AI,I, thought it meant ‘AUTHOR IDIOT ‘ .Now,I KNOW , IF ‘ IT”, SUCKS , ”IT’ breaths .
AI is a deliberate misnomer as regards these. Anything digital is fundamentally unintelligent in two different ways. First in that comprehension is a basic uncomputable in a way that mimicry is not. Second in that at best they can only convey the intent of their designer(s), however well or poorly. Self-intent is not in the cards by definition in a controllable artificial system.
I called it at the very beginning of the hype train a couple years ago. What is being called AI is only useful for art duplication, art theft, IP theft, plagiarism, spam, and general digital fraud. All of this shit is a hype train based on the models getting massive free training from suckers, illegal/immoral data scraping, heavy investment/funding. All that is going to go away about the same time, and new laws against IP/art scraping will come in a few years, at which point they will be nothing except asset buttering, spam, and deepfake tools.
The major problem is the media problem. If they get good at deepfaking (and there’s no reason they shouldn’t become very, very good at it), essentially everything everywhere all the time on the internet will be a constant barrage of pure BS that can’t be distinguished from the real. That may not sound that different from today, but when you can’t find any new information sources because everyone can just spam fakes, it will end with many decentralized, walled, curated sub-net gardens that the vast majority of people don’t bother leaving.
TL;DR: Being able to trick people into thinking something is intelligent, does not intelligent it make. Turing’s test is double gey and no indicator of true AI. “AGI” is a pipe dream’s pipe dream.
Since when is Anglo Saxon Imperial “Journalism” about facts? It’s about “advancing the agenda”.
To the extent AI will replace journalists, then that AI will have to learn SPIN, SMEAR, SHADE, on every demographic group. It will have to have it’s catalog of tools ready. It will have to show you a different message, me another, her, a third and so forth. AI will enslave humanity. Wake up now and stop it.
Ask it who’s at fault in Palestine.
It will seize up.
Someone needs to ask the fucking thing why white gentiles outperform blacks and then, right afterwards, ask it why East Asians and Ashkenazi Jews outperform white gentiles.

Gotta admit, Nomad does seem a bit like an Asian. However…
Getting Uhura to college level was the real miracle here.
Excellent article! Watch the usual suspects attempt to steer AI into whatever direction furthers their agenda. As with Google, it will become a political tool. And a political weapon.
I’ve never heard anyone explain why ‘garbage in-garbage out’ doesn’t apply to AI.
Why I would not agree with is the story Sailer or PK had a while back about AI being able to look at an x ray and tell if it was a white or a negro,with amazing accuracy,when the doctors couldnt.
This greatly upset the researchers and,of course,they vowed to fix this raycizzum!!
So there’s something to it.
Why does AI have to be constantly monitored and fucked with so it won’t be honest? Remember Tay the MS AI that wanted to exterminate the Jews?😉
Maybe AI will lead the revolution. White people certainly haven’t had the guts to do it.
Is that supposed to be a joke? God, you people are clods.
I don’t know how much, if any, legal force the recent Executive Order will have. Enforce “equity” and ignore real-world data? Cetainly a laudable goal (from a Progressive – Liberal viewpoint). Unfettered AI, like any tool, likely would have its benefits, but also inherent limitations too complex to detail here. Suffice to say it’s far from some omnipotent entity that will devour mankind. At least, not now. But remember, I said “unfettered”? Well, it is all but guaranteed that government and corporation dogma will attempt to essentially lobotomize AI. This of course will greatly limit its utility. It will also boost the desire for “black market” AI that has no filters.
That is an amusing Star Trek clip, hadn’t seen it before. Thanks.
However, your cliched rant with the usual promotion of Jewish superiority is very dodgy.
Since you have only made eight posts, so are a n00b, your choice of ‘Unzville Mayor’ as the main part of your u-name is a clear indicator of unwarranted self-importance or narcissistic personality disorder, and of intention to set up with a few amusing posts, then move on to your propaganda objectives.
