Glenn Beck dropped a preview of what he’s calling “George AI,” a recreated George Washington powered by an AI built from Founding-era writings, and the left-wing press predictably went into meltdown. The clip shows a startlingly modern-looking Washington answering Beck’s questions about America’s moral crisis, a stunt designed to spark debate about civic education and national character.
Beck says the system was constructed using only documents from the founding era and will be part of his new civics platform, The Torch, which he plans to roll out to the public on January 5, 2026. He presented the AI as a searchable repository of historical texts that can answer constitutional and civic questions in plain language for modern audiences. That factual setup undercuts the critics’ lazy narrative that this was simply a personality mimic.
Left-leaning outlets immediately labeled the George AI clip as “bizarre” and accused the bot of merely parroting Beck’s own views, as if any conservative who tries to revive patriotism is automatically just repeating a TV host’s talking points. The Daily Beast and other outlets ran with the angle that Beck engineered a Washington that “just so happened to sound like Beck,” a reflexive hit job rather than a reasoned critique.
Glenn’s response — that the AI’s knowledge base consists of primary sources from the Founding period — makes the allegation that the bot was tailored to echo him not just unfair, but implausible. If the model speaks like the Founders, it’s because it was trained on their words; to claim otherwise reveals more about the media’s bias than about the technical project. Conservatives should call out this dishonest framing every time it appears.
This episode is a textbook example of how the left weaponizes outrage to silence innovation that doesn’t toe their ideological line. Rather than engage with the idea of using technology to reconnect Americans with the principles that created this nation, they smear the messenger and try to delegitimize the message. Patriots know that restoring virtue and civic literacy is these days treated as subversion by a media class that prefers dependency to independence.
Beck’s George AI may be theatrical, but theatrics have always been part of political persuasion — the difference now is conservatives are finally building tools to fight back in the cultural arena. Using an AI to make the Founders’ writings accessible to ordinary Americans is a conservative project: it trusts citizens with information and invites them to think for themselves instead of being lectured by elites. If the left wants a debate about authenticity or methodology, bring it on; we’ll welcome the scrutiny and keep building.
Hardworking Americans should see this for what it is: an attempt to teach patriotism and common sense in a generation that’s been starved for both. Don’t let media hit pieces trick you into despising an effort to restore the moral and civic foundations of our republic. Support initiatives that hand power back to the people, not the technocratic gatekeepers who traffic in smears.
