The Florida Governor has been oddly robotic during his primary run, and now he’s dropping out a week after ChatGPT was banned for political campaigns.

    I mean … if he doesn’t employ someone that knows how to use a non-Chatgtp llm, then he probably should drop out.

      The most important thing in this article is that RD did drop out, on Sunday. I think that’s a yay, but it’s so hard to tell these days.

        The timing of it, though, after taking 2nd in Iowa is a bit suspect, given the announcement on Friday? Coincidence?

        There might be some other explanation… but I’m still gonna mock the guy.

            his face is very punch-able, too. Although I wouldn’t recommend it. You’ll never get the smell to wash off.

            I actually doubt that.

            reports from “people close to the matter” are saying Tucker Carlson, or maybe somebody else. But DeShitStain made two mistakes if he wanted to be VP. he criticized Trump, and primaried him. Trump Likes Yes-Men. the kind of people who do whatever he says, without question or hesitation.

            It’s a shitty way to run… anything… but it’s the way Trump does it. And probably the largest reason he fails at most things. (that and he’s a loser and an asshole)

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Florida Governor Ron Desantis, who often sounds like an AI chatbot, dropped out of the 2024 Presidential Election on Sunday, just a week after OpenAI banned ChatGPT for political campaigns.

    “People want to know and trust that they are interacting with a real person,” OpenAI said in a blog post last week, talking about ChatGPT but also, somehow, Desantis.

    The Florida governor certainly embraced technology, becoming the first to announce a presidential campaign on Elon Musk’s X, in a Twitter Space that cut in and out for 20 minutes.

    An AI chatbot for Minnesota Congressman Dean Phillips, a Democratic candidate challenging the incumbent President Biden, was suspended over the weekend by OpenAI, according to The Washington Post.

    For example, when the Florida governor was asked what he was eating for dinner after a debate one night, he answered, “Yea, we’ll let her rip.” Not quite a normal, human response, unlike others who responded with “salmon” or “enchiladas.” In another instance, someone at a car show made a light joke, causing Desantis to convulse and erupt in extreme laughter, with everyone staring at his malfunction.

    OpenAI CEO Sam Altman banning the use of ChatGPT in political campaigns is likely a positive development for AI.
