Over the last month, some Spanish-speaking New Yorkers got a recorded phone call from Mayor Eric Adams speaking their native language. “Hola, soy el alcalde Eric Adams,” the mayor says in a monotone but flawless accent, before launching into a pitch for jobs with the city government. The truth is Adams isn’t multilingual, but he is a pioneer in the AI politics race.
In October, the mayor’s office said he’s been using AI to blast his constituents with millions of robocalls in languages he doesn’t speak, including Yiddish, Spanish, Mandarin, Haitian Creole, and Cantonese.
Let’s skip the middle man. Get rid of politicians. Use AI instead.
AI will not cave to threats or bribes. AI won’t take million dollar salaries.
AI won’t need billion dollar pissing contests to feel better about themselves.
AI won’t hire their inept children to fuck shit up.
AI won’t be as cold hearted… Wait. Scratch that one.
