Dear John,
I hope this message finds you well.
As a fellow advocate for individual liberties, innovation instead of big
government intervention, and free-market principles, I want to bring your
attention to Joe Biden’s new executive order on artificial intelligence (AI).
You’re probably not surprised to hear Biden wants to curtail this promising
new technology. And he’s overstepping his constitutional powers yet again to do
that.
My colleague Thomas Kimbrell and I published an op-ed in The Hill
<[link removed]>
that takes Biden to task for his unintelligent approach to artificial
intelligence.
(And, in the spirit of innovation, I asked ChatGPT to summarize the op-ed with
why an AFP activist like you should care. Here’s the 6 points AI gave in
response to that prompt.)
* Executive Overreach and the Defense Production Act: President Biden's
recent executive order on artificial intelligence (AI) is exploiting the
Defense Production Act, a 1950 war powers law, meant to prevent shortages
during times of war and national emergency. This raises serious questions about
government overreach and interference in emerging technologies.
* Scope and Impact of Biden's Order: The order imposes onerous regulations on
developers of AI technologies, potentially stifling innovation and hindering
America's leadership in this critical field. A free-market approach, rather
than government interference, is essential for fostering technological
advancements.
* Lack of Clarity and Security Concerns: The lack of clarity in the order and
concerns about the security of sensitive information are troubling. We should
advocate for clear, transparent regulations that protect individual privacy and
intellectual property rights, while ensuring security through market-driven
solutions.
* Fear-Based Approach to AI: The administration's fear-driven approach to AI
is misguided because it claims technology itself causes misinformation. We must
champion a more optimistic and market-oriented stance that allows technology to
flourish without unnecessary restrictions.
* Misuse of Defense Production Act: President Biden has also misused the
Defense Production Act for non-defense purposes, such as addressing a baby
formula shortage. This misuse undermines the law's original intent and
reinforces the need for a principled defense of limited government powers.
* Pattern of Executive Overreach: The pattern of executive overreach,
including attempts struck down by the Supreme Court, underscores the importance
of maintaining checks and balances. We must resist the concentration of power
in the hands of the executive and uphold the principles of our Constitution.
John, opportunity and innovation are urgent issues that demand our vigilant
defense against Biden’s executive overreach.
I encourage you to stay informed, engage in discussions within your community,
and hold our government accountable through the democratic process.
Remember, our commitment to principles of opportunity is crucial for ensuring
a future where innovation thrives, individual liberties are protected, and
government power remains in check.
Thank you,
James
