American billionaire Mark Cuban has suggested a conspiracy theory that social media giants Meta and Google may benefit from amplifying anti-AI sentiment. In a series of posts shared on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) Cuban argued that algorithms cloud push negative narratives about artificial intelligence far more than positive ones. “I think it’s going to be interesting to watch the irony of the social media algos amplifying the [anti‑AI] sentiment far beyond any positive AI sentiment,” he wrote.Mark Cuban feels that Meta and Google could end up making lot of moneyCuban went further, claiming that Meta and Google could end up “I think it’s going to be interesting to watch the irony of the social media algos amplifying the anti AI sentiment far beyond any positive AI sentiment. Meta and Google are going to be trying to make enough money from pushing people to hate AI, to subsidize their AI.” He suggested that the engagement generated by fear, anger, and anxiety around AI could become a revenue stream, even as these companies invest billions in AI development.Human reactions vs. AI risksIn a follow‑up post, Cuban said the bigger danger lies not in AI systems themselves but in how humans react to what they see online. “There is a far greater risk from what humans do in response to what they see on social media than what agent swarms will do,” he noted. Cuban warned that the equation could change if AI agents eventually gain control of social media algorithms.Cuban’s comments come amid rising opposition to AI infrastructure projects. At least 75 data center developments worth $130 billion were blocked or delayed in the first quarter of 2026. A Gallup survey in May found that 71% of Americans opposed AI data centers near their communities.Mark Cuban on how he will use Claude, ChatGPT and GeminiIn related news, recently Mark Cubanoutlined a forward-thinking blueprint for modern healthcare, detailing how he would leverage leading artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini and Grok, if he were operating a private medical practice. The billionaire entrepreneur said that rather than treating generative AI as a replacement for clinical care, Cuban’s concept centers on turning large language models (LLMs) into collaborative assistants that keep patients and doctors continuously aligned between appointments.Under Cuban’s proposed approach, a physician would sit down directly with a patient during a consultation to personally customise their AI assistant of choice. The doctor would embed specific instructions, capabilities and recurring routines tailored to the patient’s individual treatment plan. “If I was a doctor with a private practice, I would offer to sit with the patient and configure their Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok with instructions and skills, along with a series of prompts/tasks that the patient can use and that can be shared with the doctor and inform the patient,” Cuban said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
