California Gov. Newsom Boosts AI “Misinformation” Fears, Complains Of “Micro-Cults” Around Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan<\/span><\/p>\n

In yet another criticism of free speech, Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom of California is setting his sights on artificial intelligence (AI), voicing his concern over supposed \u201cmisinformation\u201d circulating online.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Newsom flagged misinformation as a pivotal issue <\/strong>during a\u00a0Bloomberg<\/a>\u00a0AI interview, signifying a growing avenue where possible free speech issues arise.<\/p>\n

Newsom\u2019s concern isn\u2019t merely hypothetical.<\/p>\n

Overwhelmed by fear of a so-called online \u201cmicro-cult\u201d scenario, he cited popular commentator Dr. Jordan Peterson and podcast heavyweight Joe Rogan, among others, as alleged promoters of potentially harmful viewpoints.<\/p>\n

“[Separately] I really worry about the misinformation, disinformation<\/strong>… <\/em><\/p>\n

…about what’s happening with our country, but I really worry about these micro-cults that my kids are in<\/strong>\u2026 <\/em><\/p>\n

…I say micro-cults because I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s a better way to describe it.<\/em><\/p>\n

…My son is asking me about Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson. And then immediately he\u2019s talking about Joe Rogan. And I\u2019m like; here it is, the pathway,\u201d <\/strong><\/em>Newsom said.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not to say Newsom is entirely anti-AI; quite the contrary.<\/p>\n

He revealed his regular use of AI, crediting it for paving paths his administration wouldn\u2019t have otherwise traversed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It even bested him and his team at drafting his State of the State speech, he claimed, and he appeared rather pleased with the comparative function of AI services Bard and ChatGPT.<\/p>\n

And, of course, “democracy” itself is at risk…<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve talked to some friends, and you may know them well, I won’t name them, who say this is the last quote unquote fair and free election of our lifetime. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

These are pretty credible people. <\/em><\/p>\n

Unless we dramatically do things differently. And some would suggest that’s not the case, that already the ability for bots to\u2026 direct people into these micro cults, already is outsized in terms of its influence. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

That’s pretty alarming when you think about it in those terms.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Interestingly, ChatGPT has been previously revealed to harbor a partisan bias.<\/strong><\/p>\n
