trump ai executive order sparks bipartisan fury as tech giants quietly claim immunity from oversight
WASHINGTON — The new “trump ai executive order” signed behind closed doors this week has sent shockwaves through both parties, but not for the reasons you might expect. While the official narrative touts it as a “safeguard for innovation,” insiders whisper that the fine print grants sweeping legal protections to a handful of Silicon Valley titans. Who benefits? The same firms that have been lobbying for deregulation—and conveniently, many senior advisors to the former president are now on their payroll. Is this a move to rein in rogue algorithms, or a backdoor immunity pass for those who can afford it? Skeptical analysts smell a pattern: whenever a crisis looms in AI ethics, a Trump-sanctioned shield appears. The question isn’t if this benefits the few, but why the many are being sold a distraction.
