Mike Johnson Claims AI Doomsday Warnings Are a ‘Chinese Psyop’
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) told Fox Business Monday that all of the warnings about data centers and Artificial Intelligence wiping out humanity is nothing more than Chinese propaganda to get the U.S to drop out of the AI race.
“I mean, do you think that this, with regards to China — I mean, I’ve had several tech executives and lawmakers, to be clear, say that the information against data centers, that pushback against data centers — that is coming from China. They believe that,” said anchor Cheryl Casone.
“The Democrats are seizing on this, though,” Casone continued, “They’re making this their messaging. They’ve been very clear they’re going to take this into the midterms. How do you fight that?”
“This is what Democrats do every election cycle,” Johnson said. “They find something to, you know, glom onto and say that this is doom and gloom and everyone will die if we don’t win. Don’t buy it. It is a Chinese psyop. I really believe that. It’s not a conspiracy theory. I think they’re pushing those ideas.”
The conservative Heritage Foundation reported that “CCP-linked actors have aggressively amplified anti-data center voices in America, even as Beijing generously subsidizes China’s own…data center construction.” In addition, Heritage warned, “It’s time for policymakers at all levels of leadership to cultivate awareness and craft policies to counteract Chinese anti-American tech narratives.” (Read more from “Mike Johnson Claims AI Doomsday Warnings Are a ‘Chinese Psyop’” HERE)
