While some see AI as a tool to prevent human error in government, others argue that decisions affecting life, liberty, and national security must remain accountable to humans…

Rogan pitches AI-run government

Joe Rogan speaks at an event

Joe Rogan said he hopes artificial intelligence could eventually take over government, foreign policy, and military decisions to help prevent wars that humans have failed to stop.

“One of the things we're going to farm off is government. One of the things we're going to farm off is how we interact with other countries.”

Rogan imagines AI ending all wars

Rogan specifically suggested AI could intervene in military conflicts and halt wars globally, describing it as something everyone wants but no one thinks could happen.

“If all international military conflicts ended instantaneously upon AI governing the use of conflicts and military weapons... imagine that.”

Amy Kremer says hell no

Republican activist Amy Kremer rejected Rogan's proposal, saying AI is a tool, not a governing authority, and lacks soul, conscience, moral judgment, and accountability.

“Hell no. Joe Rogan is way off base. AI is a tool, not a governing authority.”

Kremer emphasized that decisions about military force, foreign policy, and constitutional rights must remain with humans who can be held accountable for their actions.

“If a decision can take a life, take away someone's liberty, or fundamentally affect the American people, a human being must make that decision.”

AI can assist, not govern

Kremer said AI can help analyze information and inform policymakers, but there's a profound difference between using AI as a tool and surrendering human decision-making to it.

The Trump administration is moving to speed up military and intelligence community use of AI while keeping responsibility within the existing chain of command and requiring systems to be controllable.

Kremer concluded that technology should serve humanity, not the other way around, as the debate over AI authority intensifies across the nation.

“Technology should serve humanity. Humanity should never serve the machines.”
