Joe Biden’s freedom-hating government is now reportedly working on artificial intelligence (AI) programs that can be used to censor free speech online according to documents revealing a government contract at the University of Washington.
The documents reveal that someone named Tatiana Korelsky (not too Russian, huh?) has been given a grant of $550,436 out of the inaptly-named “American Rescue Plan Act of 2021,” to create AI that would “detect implicit social bias in written discourse and narrative text.”
Yes, the woke fascists are looking for yet more ways to delete wrong speak, stamp out wrong think, and destroy free speech, this time without any human intervention at all.
The grant was discovered by conservative writer Christopher F. Rufo who took to Twitter to warn his followers about this latest Orwellian fascism.
The federal government is now funding an initiative to train AI to censor social media content. The NSF-backed program promises to "detect and intervene" in cases of "gendered microaggressions," "dehumanizing metaphors," and "disguised toxicity."

Of course, the problem with all computer programs is, they really can only “work” by what is put into them. And if the Russian researcher listed in the University of Washington database only puts in woke criteria, then the only outcome will be to server wokery.
So far, for all the hype around it, currently there is no such thing as “artificial intelligence.”
So, the only thing this Russian researcher at UofW will end up delivering is a simple word search program that will reach out and ban all the speech it sees based on the list of verboten words her woke buddies programed into it.
Free speech be damned.
Literally.
It’s all just another fascist attempt to destroy anyone with whom they disagree.
