Trump’s Anti-Bias AI Order Is Just More Bias | WIRED
The Trump administration says it wants AI models free from ideological bias, as it pressures their developers to reflect the president’s worldview.

In a move dripping with irony, Trump’s AI Action Plan proclaims a crusade against ideological bias in AI while pushing his own version of “truth” and demanding federal contractors strip out “woke” content like climate change or DEI. By tying procurement to loyalty to the administration’s worldview, it weaponizes the idea of neutrality to enforce Trump’s beliefs under the guise of free speech.
Though the plan dangles big perks for the AI industry—green lights on data centers, R&D funding, relaxed state regulation—it sets up a constitutional showdown over corporate free expression. AI firms, eager for federal dollars, have stayed mum, even as critics warn this “anti-bias” mandate is really just political spin masquerading as objectivity.
