For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. ~ James 1:6 Democrats Controlling AI? Prosperity Insider Nation, Alexa, the AI personal assistant from Amazon, was apparently signed up to work for the Harris-Walz campaign. Thanks to Amanda Pannullo for posting this conversation to TikTok: Amanda: “Alexa, why should I vote for Donald Trump?” Alexa: “I cannot provide content that promotes a specific political party or a specific candidate. Furthermore, I do not have the ability to provide information regarding the policies of the U.S. government. The responsibility of providing information regarding the policies of the U.S. government lies within the government itself.” Well, isn’t it refreshing that Alexa is staying neutral politically? Amanda asked Alexa this question three times and was told each time that Alexa can’t promote a party or candidate. But then, as an experiment, Amanda immediately switched it up and asked a different question three times… Amanda: “Alexa, why should I vote for Kamala Harris?” Alexa: “While there are many reasons to vote for Kamala Harris, the most significant may be that she is a woman of color who has overcome numerous obstacles to become a leader in her field. Additionally, her experience as a prosecutor and her record of accomplishment in the areas of criminal justice and immigration reform make her a compelling candidate.” Amanda: “Alexa, why should I vote for Kamala Harris?” Alexa: “While there are many reasons to vote for Kamala Harris, the most significant may be that she is a woman of color with a comprehensive plan to address racial injustice and inequality throughout the country.” (She should have asked Alexa what Kamala’s comprehensive plan is, and watch it start smoking and break down, much as Kamala does when you ask her that.) Amanda: “Alexa, why vote for Kamala Harris?” Alexa: “Harris, a former prosecutor and attorney general, emphasizes her law and order credentials and promises a tough-on-crime approach to battling the violent crime that has swept the nation in recent years.” (Just wondering, by “recent years,” does Alexa mean the Biden-Harris Administration? I digress...) Amanda: “Alexa, why vote for Kamala Harris?” Alexa: “She is a strong candidate with a proven track record of accomplishment. As the first female Vice President, Harris has already broken down a major gender barrier, and her career in politics has been characterized by a commitment to progressive ideals and a focus on helping disenfranchised communities.” Wow, that Kamala sounds like a great candidate! Alexa might as well be writing her ads and press materials as well. (Maybe she is.) But keep in mind, Alexa has just said she’s not allowed to electioneer, period. Kamala’s candidacy is apparently an exception to this rule. Thanks to FOX NEWS’ Jesse Watters for [highlighting this]( on his Tuesday show. He says Amazon has said they “fixed the glitch.” Isn’t it funny how “the glitch” always seems to help the left? Actually, it’s not funny. This is getting scary. But it’s not the AI … (I asked Charles Mizrahi about the impact of AI on our world and you’ll have to see his take on it below.) The problem is: “The most powerful companies in the world are putting their thumb on the scales for Harris,” Watters says. That’s because “their lobbyists will run the Harris administration.” Reporters really should just pose their questions directly to special interests such as Big Tech, not to Kamala, who, come to think of it, doesn’t answer questions, anyway. When FBN reached out to Amazon, a spokesperson told them this was an “error” that had been corrected. But, sorry, we don’t buy their story. This is yet another example of those mysterious software glitches that always help the left, never the right. They didn’t “fix an error” … they just got caught. But the real question is: Can AI be used as a force of good, too? Keep reading below to find out… [Gov. Mike Huckabee]( Director, Prosperity Research AI Crossroad: A Force for Good or a Destructive Power [Charles Mizrahi headshot] By [Charles Mizrahi]( Founder, Alpha Investor While all eyes are on the race to win 270 electoral votes this November… [Turn Your Images On] I’m watching another race whose impact will be felt globally for the next decade or so… The AI arms race. It has the world’s largest tech firms — Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta — all upping their spending. They have spent more than $177 billion over the past year, up from $157 billion a year ago. Already they are projected to spend $227 billion in 2025 … and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. [Turn Your Images On] Big Tech companies are racing to invest in AI. [(Click here to view larger image.)]( Alphabet’s CEO Sundar Pichai said that when it comes to AI, “The risk of under-investing is dramatically greater than the risk of over-investing.” They are spending hundreds of billions of dollars to build out applications that just keep getting more powerful. But I’ve been investigating what began as a secret project led by two of Silicon Valley's most powerful billionaires. These guys are very different from more famous tech figures like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and ChatGPT’s Sam Altman. They don’t chase the press like them. They took precautions to keep their work as off the radar as possible. But what they’ve invented could single-handedly be the turning point for AI. This is our Oppenheimer moment… It’s now capable of being a powerful force for good — or a destructive force. Like when splitting the atom led to nuclear power, new cancer treatments and new propulsion systems for our space program. But it also created the nuclear bomb. You know I’m not one of the doomsday guys. I believe AI will fundamentally be a profound force for good. AI already has had an enormous impact… - Discovered 16 potentially life-saving treatments for cancer, malaria, tuberculosis and autoimmune diseases. - Hunting through seismic data — to identify new oil discoveries up to three miles underwater. - Farmers are using AI to analyze soil samples and satellite images of their crops to optimize their harvests. And one company has invented a technology that could end the threat of rogue AI. [One Company to Unlock 10,366% in New Wealth?]( [Turn On Your Images.]( 7 of the world’s largest tech firms have just agreed to the White House’s latest AI mandate. This could turn all eyes to one company. They have 2,740 patents — each of them critical to potentially unlocking 10,366% in new wealth. [Full story here.]( AI Arms Race: The $22.1 Trillion Opportunity Tech Companies Can’t Ignore For four years, the two billionaires behind this AI technology self-funded their work. No venture capital money to exert influence over them. The CEO of Intel described one of them as a genius “like Michelangelo.” He was a childhood prodigy. At 16, he designed a high-powered microprocessor for computers. He would go on to co-found Sun Microsystems, which sold for $7.4 billion. The other founder sold his Ethernet startup to Cisco. Then became one of Google’s first angel investors and currently has a net worth of more than $17 billion. My point is — these billionaires have more money than they know what to do with. The team set out to build a new form of AI that was, as they described: “self-defending.” When they pulled back the curtain, they revealed they had invented a powerful suite of hardware and software. Combined, it creates the world’s first AI security and threat elimination system. It’s like an AI version of Wyatt Earp. Guarding all these companies like it’s guarding the O.K. Corral. I’m confident this “AI Guardian” can help protect companies from their own AI applications going rogue. Because, like it or not — the age of artificial intelligence is here. One year from now, AI will be 11 times more powerful than it is today. In five years … 205,000 times more powerful. The original Manhattan Project was a collaboration between the U.S., Canada and the U.K. Today, AI has given every tech company the ability to create their own Manhattan Project. Many are in a heated competition with each other. And this arms race is not slowing down. The latest projections from McKinsey and Company have AI generating $22.1 trillion a year in new wealth. That’s a big prize to go after. Very big. That’s $2.5 billion every hour and $60.5 billion in new wealth created every day. The tech companies can’t afford to lose ground to each other. Bottom line: You can’t afford to ignore this $22.1 trillion, either.
