The House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, is probing potential censorship by the Biden administration over artificial intelligence. Subpoenas were issued to 16 tech companies, including giants like Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft, requesting extensive communications records from January 2020 to January 2025. This includes discussions regarding moderation and algorithmic bias. Jordan is linking the inquiry to a former President's executive order that set forth guidelines for AI regulation and is asserting that such actions pressured companies into censoring content. This investigation marks a significant expansion of scrutiny over AI-related practices.
