As usual, the world’s biggest liars and would-be tyrants want to root out “misinformation” and protect “democracy.”
In this case, however, the liars and would-be tyrants in President Joe Biden’s administration, led by Vice President Kamala Harris, lack the competence to carry out an assigned task.
Thus, according to NBC News, Biden has turned to one of his predecessors, former President Barack Obama.
The former president held Zoom meetings with White House aides and dealt directly with tech companies. In conversations with tech-industry leaders, Obama emphasized issues such as “information integrity, bias and discrimination,” according to the report.
Of course he did.
In a statement posted to Medium this week, Obama even had the galactic chutzpah to pose as a guardian of truth.
“We’ve already seen what can happen when our shared basis of facts begins to erode, for example, affecting everything from politics and the economy to public health,” the former president wrote with his characteristic blend of dishonesty and condescension.
Obama’s involvement on this issue merely highlights another of Harris’ failures.
In May, Biden named the vice president his AI “czar” and tasked her with spearheading the administration’s AI oversight campaign. At the time, Elon Musk and others subtly mocked the appointment, noting Harris’ general incompetence.
On Wednesday, the vice president delivered a speech at an AI summit in London. A comically inept speaker, Harris nonetheless managed to squeeze several establishment lies into one rhetorical question.
