Allegations have emerged that Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration influenced Google’s decision to develop its controversial artificial intelligence (AI) program Gemini with an anti-white bias.
House Republicans have responded to the allegations by demanding that the Big Tech giant disclose influence on its development from the federal government.
The Gemini provoked a widespread backlash after users noticed it had been programmed with a bizarre extreme bias against white people.
The program allows people to type in a command and it will generate an image based on what was requested.
However, when users would type “generate an image of the Founding Fathers,” for example, they would be depicted as non-white people.
The program appeared to have been developed to replace most men with women and remove all white people.

Since Gemini’s launch late last month, evidence has now emerged that the Biden admin played a role in Google’s biased programming.
In response, the GOP-led House Judiciary Committee sent a letter over the weekend to Alphabet, Google’s parent company, demanding answers.
The document stresses that the committee is insisting upon receiving any connection or correspondence detailing any interaction between the Biden admin and Alphabet concerning Gemini.
All requested communication records must be submitted to the committee by March 17th.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the committee’s chairman, authored the letter.
In the letter, Jordan states that the committee wants answers on how the AI model’s results were intentionally skewed against white people.
Jordan wrote:
“In light of new reporting regarding how Alphabet intentionally biased its AI model, Gemini, by giving it instructions that distort the results shared with Americans…we write to inform you that the committee views the subpoena as covering material relating to this technology.”
Reports from inside the Gemini team have raised eyebrows, meanwhile.
It has since emerged that the program adhered to the Biden admin’s guidelines emphasizing “equity.”
This Marxist concept prioritizes promoting traditionally marginalized groups, even over accuracy or truth.
This resulted in the AI system often presenting images that disproportionately represent diverse individuals, ignoring historical accuracy.
Gemini’s portrayal of historical figures, for example, the Founding Fathers or revolutionary soldiers as black or other minorities and the refusal to portray them as white, was the subject of widespread ridicule that affected Google’s stock price.

The letter goes on to convey fears circling potential violations of free speech.
The committee observed Google’s history of censoring speech protected under the First Amendment as per government requests and demands.
