New York's radical Democrats are at it again, this time targeting artificial intelligence in a brazen attempt to control what information Americans can access. State senators aligned with socialist Zohran Mamdani have introduced legislation that would ban AI chatbots from answering questions about law, medicine, psychology, and more than a dozen other professions.
The proposed bill specifically targets any AI program "impersonating certain licensed professionals" and would prohibit chatbots from giving "substantive responses, information, or advice" in these fields. But here's the kicker - the legislation would allow users to bring civil lawsuits against chatbot providers, essentially weaponizing the court system against tech companies.
This isn't about protecting consumers - it's about protecting the monopoly of credentialed elites who can't stand the idea of everyday Americans having direct access to information. Why should patriots have to pay hundreds of dollars to ask a lawyer a simple legal question when AI can provide basic guidance for free?
While New York Democrats obsess over controlling AI, other lawmakers are busy with their own power grabs. Social media users are tracking how@KnightShift reportedthat Senators Jeff Merkley and Amy Klobuchar just introduced the "End Prediction Market Corruption Act," seeking to ban prediction market trading for government officials. As@5starigaming noted, these senators are working overtime to introduce new restrictions and bans.
This AI censorship bill perfectly captures the authoritarian mindset of today's Democratic Party. They can't control the narrative when Americans have direct access to information, so they're trying to shut down the sources. It's the same playbook they used with social media censorship - claim it's about "safety" while really protecting their own interests.
Fortunately, President Trump's administration has made clear its commitment to ending government overreach and protecting free speech. Will patriotic Americans stand by and let New York Democrats dictate what questions they can ask AI? The answer should be a resounding no.
