Biden Administration seeks to “woke-ify” AI, watchdog warns.

The Biden administration is pushing to transform artificial intelligence (AI) to promote a woke agenda led by left-wing activists and censor conservatives, warned a conservative watchdog group.

The American Accountability Foundation (AAF) reviewed the White House’s plans for AI and posted a warning on Twitter that top government officials are seeking to infuse “dangerous ideologies” into AI systems.

AAF president Tom Jones told Fox News Digital that “under the guise of fighting ‘algorithmic discrimination’ and ‘harmful bias,’ the Biden administration is trying to rig AI to follow the woke left’s rules.”

“Biden is being advised on technology policy not by scientists but by racially obsessed social academics and activists. We’ve already seen the biggest tech firms in the world, like Google under Eric Schmidt, use their power to push the left’s agenda. This would take the tech/woke alliance to a whole new, truly terrifying level,” explained Jones.

White House Plans to Weaponize AI Against Conservatives

“The Biden administration’s efforts to make AI woke is absolutely terrifying. The prospect of AI being rigged by the left is truly Orwellian,” Jones told the New York Post.

“This is just another example of how the woke never miss an opportunity to seize power. All Americans need to know about what Biden and his cronies are up to.”

The AAF memo cited four recent Democratic documents as evidence of the Biden administration’s plot to “wokeify” AI technology.

One document is the Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights, which was released by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) last October.

The document warned of “algorithmic discrimination” in which AI systems could treat people differently based on their race, sex, or other characteristics.

The paper called for data “used as part of system development or assessment” to be “reviewed for bias based on the historical and societal context of the data” and recommended “proactive equity assessments as part of the system design,” along with other actions.

Speaking at the Summit for Democracy in March, Arati Prabhakar, director of OSTP, praised Biden’s February executive order for promoting “data equity” and directing agencies to fight “algorithmic discrimination” so AI can advance an equitable agenda.

Biden Officials Issue Steps to “Wokeify” AI Technology

President Joe Biden first issued an executive order in February to “continuously embed equity into all aspects of federal decision-making.”

The order instructed federal bureaucrats to ensure that all AI systems in the United States are programmed to comply with the global woke agenda.

“When designing, developing, acquiring, and using artificial intelligence and automated systems in the federal government, agencies shall do so, consistent with applicable law, in a manner that advances equity,” said the order.

It also instructs federal agencies to “ensure that their respective civil rights offices are consulted” on any decisions regarding the use of AI in order to “root out bias in the design and use of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence” and combat “algorithmic discrimination.”

On May 23, the White House’s Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence, which is also run by Prabhakar, released the National Artificial Intelligence Research and Development Strategic Plan.

This calls for additional resources to fight “harmful biases” and warns “AI systems are prone to ‘hallucinate’ and recapitulate biases derived from the unfiltered data from the internet used to train them.”

The memo says that “understanding how AI can reduce inequities stemming from systemic, structural, and individual bias is an important area of research.”

The OSTP announced another directive titled, “New Steps to Advance Responsible Artificial Intelligence Research, Development, and Deployment.”

These “steps” included an “updated roadmap to focus federal investments [i.e., taxpayer dollars] in AI research and development,” along with an advice questionnaire called Request for Information National Priorities for Artificial Intelligence.

The White House has also hosted so-called “listening sessions” with “workers” on future AI policy with a left-wing political bent, which is devoted to influencing elections against conservative candidates.

The committee that produced the report is part of the National Science and Technology Council, which is led by Vice President Kamala Harris, Biden’s “AI Czar.”

Biden put Harris, who has been critical about alleged racial bias in AI, in charge of the administration’s plan “to promote responsible AI innovation that protects Americans’
