Obama Pushing to Make AI Doomerism a Centerpiece of Democrat Agenda– gellerreport.com

Barack Hussein Obama told Democrats: They badly need to grab hold of the debate over artificial intelligence and impeding its progress a central pillar of their agenda.

Of course he did. There is one infallible rule in 211st century American politics – anything the Democrats are behind and pushing, is disastrous for America. Every time.

Thus: The sudden pressing of the “panic” button by talking heads on the left. New York Times: Former President Barack Obama warned during a recent private fund-raising event that artificial intelligence technology could be “dangerous” if not properly managed, as he implored Democrats to aggressively develop political and governing agendas to prioritize the issue in the coming years. In his remarks on Thursday, which have not been previously reported, Mr. Obama urged Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat of New York and the House minority leader, to assemble a clear framework for a public conversation about A.I. policy, should Democrats win back the House in the midterm elections, according to a partial transcript provided by Mr. Obama’s office (New York Times).

Politico adds: Obama said AI development would be “one of my central agendas” if he were running for president, throwing down a gauntlet as the shadow 2028 Democratic primary debate responded to the AI leaders’ calls (Politico).

Make no mistake, Communist China is not slowing down and they are making huge gain using American (much of it stolen) technology. Why would we deliberately handicap ourselves while Communist China races ahead, weaponizing artificial intelligence for military power, mass surveillance, cyberwarfare and global domination?
