Biden Administration AI ‘review of pressure’ House GOP subpoena technology company
The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee is examining whether the Biden administration is trying to “review” artificial intelligence. Representative Jim Jordan has sent the subpoena to 16 different tech companies, who have some ability to work with AI to demand any communication from the previous government to limit “harmful bias” and “algorithm discrimination.”
Subpoena was sent to Adobe, Amphabet, Amazon, Anthropic, Apple, Cohere, International Business Machines Corp. (IBM), Inflection Point AI, Meta, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, Open AI, AI, AI, Palantir, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Salesforce, Scalize AI and Scaile AI and stability AI, and requires a lot of information, essentially January 2020 January 2020, and January 2020, and January 2020, and January 20, 2020, and January 20, 2020, and 2020. Communication “references or relevance to the content, inputs or outputs of AI models, loops, deletions, suppressions, restrictions or reductions, whether the company has an internal communication with the previous management, about discussions with the third party or discussion, needs to be included in the content, training data sets, training data sets, algorithms, systems or products.
Jordan and the Commission claimed that the former president’s executive order called for regulations on algorithmic discrimination and guidelines on how the federal government will use AI to review speeches to private companies. Digging out old documents and communications is an attempt to connect those seemingly distant points.
Trapped tech companies are nothing new to Jordan. Just last week, he summoned Google through separate censorship issues, and over the past few years he has often performed to propose a technology CEO to prove moderation. The main difference now is that even companies that don’t run voice platforms like Adobe or Nvidia are under scrutiny.
