Free Speech: Why a Tech Titan Backed Trump | RealClearPolitics

“My concern is that the censorship and political control of AI is a thousand times more dangerous than censorship and political control of social media — maybe a million times more dangerous,” Andreessen, a prime innovator of artificial intelligence, told Weiss. “The thing with AI is, I think AI is going to be the control layer for everything in the future — how the health care system works, how the education system works, how the government works. So that if AI is woke, biased, censored, politically controlled, you are in a hyper-Orwellian, China-style, social credit system nightmare.”

Like fellow tech titan Elon Musk, Andreessen has come to see the Democrats as “the ones who are trying to silence free speech.” However, unlike many Trump supporters, he does not fasten upon the obvious partisan example: Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s 2020 campaign enlistment of 51 current or former intelligence officials to depict Hunter Biden’s laptop as bearing “the hallmarks of Russian disinformation.”

Andreesson is 100 percent correct about this.
