Trump Bans ‘Woke AI’ From Federal Contracts in New Executive Order
Main Idea
U.S. officials are scrutinizing bias in AI systems, including 'Woke AI' and Chinese AI, focusing on issues like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and ideological neutrality.
Key Points
1. President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning 'Woke AI' systems, accusing them of prioritizing DEI over factual accuracy.
2. The order mandates that federal agencies can only procure AI systems that maintain 'ideological neutrality', with exceptions for national security.
3. Examples of AI bias include ChatGPT generating images of black Vikings and providing moralizing responses when asked about racial achievements.
4. U.S. officials are also testing Chinese AI systems like Deepseek for alignment with Chinese Communist Party stances on sensitive topics.
5. Concerns about partisan leanings and cultural bias in AI output have become a flashpoint, particularly around race and gender issues.
Description
The order requires "ideological neutrality" and bans DEI-aligned large language models from government contracts.
