    Computer says "
    Its a political rebranding of failure as persecution — a long-standing tactic, but now tied to AI and “wokeness.”

    Trump's executive order on AI isn’t about the technology, really. It’s about maintaining a narrative where any perceived cultural shift (e.g., changing demographics, historical reinterpretation, social sensitivity) is painted as a threat to truth, order, or national greatness. In that narrative, “woke AI” becomes the new scapegoat — replacing "fake news" or "deep state."

    The language of persecution (“existential threat,” “suppression of truth,” “misgendering in a nuclear apocalypse”) isn't meant to inform; it's meant to inflame — and to imply that being challenged or contradicted is the same as being oppressed.

    It is largely a grift. It redirects fear and confusion into tribal loyalty and dollars. And it works, not just because the supporters are dumb, but because they're scared, nostalgic, or angry, and someone very skilled at selling identity politics gives them a badge and a battle to fight.

    If you’re watching it happen and feeling incredulous, you’re not alone. But you're also not its target audience — and that's why it might feel so irrational."

    DEI came from BlackRock and BlackRock is deputy FED.
    If you twist a young tree branch, twisted it remains.
    Trump is protecting the future US from further subversion, his place in history is all that matters to him.

    Right, and misgendering someone is worse than a nuclear apocalypse.

    Eh. This is just to rile you morons up.

    government would have only bought customized AI solutions anyway.

    Why is something one person said, maybe, one time given so much weight in your head?

    You trying to make up a headline to justify your perspective?

    A sharpie can work just as good.

    Google's Gemini AI image generation feature that occurred in February 2024
    .
    The AI was observed to:
    • Generate images depicting racially diverse figures in historically inaccurate contexts, such as racially diverse Nazi-era German soldiers.
    • Overcompensate in some cases when attempting to ensure a range of diversity in its output.
    • In some instances, refuse to generate images of certain racial groups, such as White people, when prompted, claiming it could perpetuate stereotypes

    Or in the words of one person -- "It wanted to Hamilton-ize everything".
