In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“The campaign regularly uses "frontier" generative AI products to perform mock-ups of graphics/logos as well as refining/distilling text for publishing and speech. These are simply more cost-efficient approaches to campaigning, thereby giving greater value to donor contributions.”
“If elected, my goal is to use AI to assess constituent news and feedback to identify 4th District experts with whom I can use to guide legislation, act quickly to resolve urgent concerns, and aid planning for the evolving needs of our district, commonwealth and country. This allows everyone to be heard and for individual voices, ideas, and needs to not be lost amongst the many.”
