Even as artificial intelligence is spiraling out of control, the Biden administration is planning to fund it and to use it to promote “equity” in America.

From The Epoch Times. The Biden administration has released a plan for federal investments in artificial intelligence (AI) that outlines several strategies the government needs to focus on; one of the objectives is to advance “equity” and counter “inequity” in society.

The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) released a National AI R&D Strategic Plan which outlines “key priorities and goals for federal investments in AI R&D,” according to a May 23 Fact Sheet from the White House. The plan (pdf) lays out nine strategic strategies, including making long-term investments in fundamental and “responsible” AI research; developing effective methods of human-AI collaboration; understanding and addressing the ethical, legal, and societal implications of AI; and ensuring the safety and security of AI systems.

Focus will also be on developing shared public datasets for AI development, evaluating AI systems through benchmarks, better understanding the needs of the national AI R&D workforce, expanding public-private partnerships to accelerate AI advancements, and establishing a coordinated and principled approach to international collaboration in AI research. …

One of the plan objectives is to ensure that AI systems “promote equity.” The National AI R&D Strategic Plan insists that AI capabilities need to “advance equity rather than exacerbating inequity.”

“For example, if only wealthy hospitals can take advantage of AI systems, the benefits of these technologies will not be equitably distributed. Research to make beneficial AI accessible in historically underrepresented communities will help ensure that those in greatest need of these capabilities can use them,” the plan states. …

AI Use Within Government

Back in February, Biden approved an executive order directing federal agencies to use AI to achieve “equity” objectives, a decision that attracted criticism. …

Multiple federal agencies are already using AI for various tasks. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is using artificial intelligence to collect information from social media activity. The AI tool allows CBP to screen travelers, including American citizens, people who are seeking asylum, and refugees.

In April, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said that it intends to form a task force exploring the use of AI to advance “critical homeland security missions.”

We should promote equality of opportunity not equity. I am old enough to remember when equity meant what you built up when you paid your mortgage.

Father, your word reassures me to “fear not” so I quiet myself and trust in you to direct my thoughts, my ways, and my prayers regarding the future of AI, my and my family’s future, the future of our nation, and the future of humanity. You already published the future in your Book, no devil or device can catch You off guard or interfere with your love and faithfulness. Father, you are more good and more wise than we can even imagine. I trust you to care for your creations and your world as you have done since the beginning of time. Man has made a mess of your world and the life you have given, polluting it in every category of life, yet You are still sovereign and still in control no matter what, and I choose to rest in that and not become fearful of technology and things I know little to nothing about which are out of my control but noylt yours. Father protect us, our families, your church and our nation from corruption. You gave Noah a plan and your protection in His day when the rest of the world was corrupt and you will provide for us as well. Keep our eyes on you with gratitude and faith, not distracted by the wiles and plans of the enemy. Thank you for hearing our prayers and answering.

Why does IFA not end their prayering with, “We pray in Jesus Name”? It was one of the pillars in Derek Prince’s strategies in having our prayers answered? I end my praying with IFA myself but I am just wondering? I feel Derek Prince would address this were he alive at IFA now…

    Aren’t we all praying in the name above all names? Jesus, Yeshua HaMaschiach, is messiah. I suppose they could but I see it as a template for our own prayers. I know who I worship and exalt above all else…I am trusting everyone else on this platform does too!!! God bless and thanks for praying! We prayer warriors have a sure and mighty calling in this day and age! Sending knee mail!

I’m praying for God to help us weak-minded/willed humans to guide the development and use of AI so that it fosters Good over Evil.
