“We are the AI.”
This Borg-like greeting could soon be coming to the Internet in the form of new AI overlords. In a chilling recent interview, the billionaire founder of Microsoft Bill Gates called for the use of artificial intelligence to combat not just “digital disinformation” but “political polarization.”
It’s just the latest to call for the use of AI or algorithms to shape what people say or read on the Internet. The danger of this system is evident when freedom of expression, like resistance, could become useless.
In an interview with a German program, “Handelsblatt Disrupt”, Gates calls for the development of AI to prevent certain opinions from being “magnified by digital channels”. The problem is that we allow “various conspiracy theories like QAnon or whatever to be destroyed by people who wanted to believe these things.”
This is not the first call to AI overlords to protect us from ourselves. Last September, Gates delivered the keynote address at the Forbes 400 Summit on Philanthropy. He told fellow billionaires that “polarization and lack of trust is a problem.”
The problem is again… well… people: “People are looking for simple solutions [and] the truth is a little boring sometimes.”
Not AI, of course. That would give the solutions. Otherwise, Gates suggested, we could all die: “Political polarization can end everything, we will have suspended elections and a civil war.”
Others have suggested a new world where citizens will be carefully guided in what they read and see. Democratic leaders have called for a kind of “enlightened algorithms” to frame what citizens access on the Internet. In 2021, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) objected that people were not listening to the reported opinions of herself and leading experts. Instead, they were reading skeptics’ opinions by searching Amazon and finding books by “prominent disinformation mongers.”
Warren faulted Amazon for not limiting searches or choices: “This pattern and practice of misconduct suggests that Amazon is unwilling or unable to modify its business practices to prevent the spread of falsehoods or the sale of inappropriate products.” In his letter, Warren gave the company 14 days to change its algorithms to speed up and obstruct efforts to read opposing views.
Social media responded to these calls and engaged in widespread censorship of those with opposing views on mask mandates, vaccine safety, school mandates, and the origin of COVID-19. Many of these criticisms and opinions are now recognized as plausible and legitimate, but the scientists were banned and censored. “Polarization” was not allowed. The public was never allowed to have this full debate on social media because these opinions were declared misinformation.
