Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) calls out the coordinated effective altruist campaign to stoke fear over AI innovation: "I think the fearmongering we're seeing now is a coordinated campaign by a set of people and ideologies, and the nonprofits behind them, that are trying to scare the American public, and, frankly, the world, about the capabilities in these systems, when THEY THEMSELVES control how these systems are deployed."

![Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) on the dangerous ideology of effective altruism: "I think it comes from a deep-rooted ideology that is pretty dystopian. This was articulated on TV by the CEO of that company the other night, where they want a transnational governance process on AI that includes companies. So, they put themselves on par with the president and other democratic presidents... It's completely counter to our democratic institutions. We saw that early at the Department of War 🇺🇸, and we're almost done taking them out [of the Department]."](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2099612826729926774/amplify_video_thumb/2099612753409282049/img/2p0DdjnBDgnJSrUg.jpg)

Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) explains the Department of War 🇺🇸's shift from focusing on exquisite systems to mass attritable systems: "We've thought about what we need for the modern battlefield. And you need right now both, but I think eventually you're going to see what I call a mixshift. You're going to see the shift of dollars from what we call exquisite systems that were developed during the Cold War to more modern mass attritable autonomous systems driven by AI."

Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) on the coordinated spending campaign by the effective altruists to try and scare the American public about AI: “The amount of dollars being spent in DC now, directly and indirectly, by this effective altruist movement... I don't think the country has ever seen, and I think in the next few years you're going to see more dollars poured into this industry from a lobbying standpoint. The promoters of some of these extinction, death-cult-like philosophies are a part of that effort... There's no doubt this is a coordinated campaign to scare people to make irrational decisions that benefit some of these incumbents."

![Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) on the importance of reshoring the critical parts of the supply chain to reestablish self-reliance and put America FIRST: "We outsourced [our] capabilities and devastated a lot of communities in this country. So now, what do you do about that? We have to reshore those things, not everything, but our critical capabilities. We have to make sure that we can be self-reliant, whether it's chips, whether it's minerals, or batteries — all the things that we depend on as a country. So, we are busily working on onshoring the critical areas of the supply chain so we can be self-reliant."](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2092700057598644707/amplify_video_thumb/2092699956498886657/img/OUG0XIudz09znxE8.jpg)

But then, the bigger it is. So, can you start to make the size of the [system] smaller so you can move it around, make it more mobile?...

Under Secretary Emil Michael (Under Secretary of War Emil Michael) breaks down the ideology of "effective altruism" in the AI domain and explains why its worldview is deeply flawed: "It's a sort of dystopian, ‘Brave New World’ view of the world, where machines that are using 1s and 0s are going to have no bias and are going to decide the perfectly rational and best thing for everyone on Earth. It's a strange philosophical concept, and I don't think it's a place any normal person wants to live in. But that is the animation of a lot of these companies. They've now distanced themselves from it, but the detritus of that philosophy still lives inside these companies in my view."
