Last night, President Trump signed an executive order banning the federal government from using woke AI systems.
The path to yesterday's executive order began with a simple recognition: AI systems were being trained on decades of content from which conservative voices had been systematically excluded. While Big Tech companies spent years shadowbanning, demonetizing, and algorithmically suppressing conservative media, they were simultaneously using that same poisoned dataset to train the AI systems that would shape humanity's future.
For months, many of us raised the red flag about woke AI.
Human Events published a series of op-eds warning about what biased artificial intelligence would mean for America's future.
In May, I published "AI has a liberal bias problem—here's how to fix it" in Human Events, documenting how every major AI system demonstrated clear left-wing bias. The piece wasn't just analysis—it was a roadmap for action, outlining specific steps needed to restore balance to AI training data.
