Glenn Beck has quietly jumped into the AI fray with a bold, unapologetic project called George AI — an engine Beck says is built only from Founding-era writings, the Federalist Papers, contemporaneous sermons and the texts that shaped the men who founded this republic. He released a short promo interview with a digital George Washington to show what the system can do and explained that the model is walled off from outside material so it offers only what the founders actually wrote.
Predictably, the left-wing media and online snarkers turned the launch into a punchline, mocking the AI’s stylized avatar and insisting it merely parrots Beck’s viewpoint. Those attacks miss the point and reveal more about the critics than the project — mainstream outlets labeled the clip “bizarre” and seized on its presentation rather than engaging the substance Beck is trying to preserve.
What matters is substance: Beck’s aim is to build an American alternative to Big Tech’s ideological mills, a searchable, source-linked repository that shows where claims come from and what the founding generation actually thought. He’s even compared his collection’s scope to the nation’s great repositories, arguing the archive he’s digitized rivals the largest public collections and will let citizens query constitutional questions grounded in primary sources.
Conservative readers should see this for what it is — an effort to democratize history and arm citizens with the documents that made liberty possible. When the AI answered that America’s root problem is moral decay, Glenn rightly pushed back on the smug allegation that the bot was “just echoing Beck” and pointed out that if those conclusions sound familiar it’s because he has been reading the same sources for decades. The debate should be about truth and restoration of civic virtue, not cheap derision.
On the question of what to call an AI — “he,” “it,” or a proper name — Americans shouldn’t get lost in semantic purity tests. Conservatives value clarity and honesty: call the bot by its name, call out the claims it makes, and hold its answers to the same evidentiary standard you’d demand from any expert or institution. The real fight isn’t about pronouns; it’s about whether our children and courts and communities reclaim a civic literacy rooted in the Constitution.
Glenn says the system will expand and be available through his new platform, and he’s invited skeptics and citizens alike to try it and follow the sourcing himself rather than rely on hostile summaries. If we want institutions that respect our history and resist ideological capture, building parallel technology that honors primary documents is exactly the pragmatic conservatism we need right now.
This isn’t a publicity stunt — it’s a provocation to the status quo and a challenge to every patriot: stop letting leftist gatekeepers decide which versions of history are respectable. Demand primary documents, demand sources, and don’t be ashamed to build American alternatives to the Silicon Valley monoculture that has so often served as the cultural arm of the left.
