No I don’t think I will

how long until it says a racial slur

It's a "Republican Strategist". So my money's on IMMEDIATELY.

can’t imagine what the beta testing was like

3 . . . 2 . . . 1

(let’s not jam and say we didn’t)

...why? Like, genuinely why? CNN has access to every freak 'strategist' pervert of any political leaning, why do they need Scott????

My guess is real perverts want to be paid for their time, and "Scott" is free* *He's gotta come with a software license or some shit that actually costs money, not to mention the lost productivity involved in servicing and stuff like that.

And somehow will cost more because they are always paying Scott, instead of when they just need something insane said

I'd almost bet that Scott is fake and the so-called "WeLl MeAnInG lIbErAlS" at CNN, just pretend to be Scott whenever they wanna say how they really feel.

For now, Scott will not get charged with sexual harassment.

I think that's very optimistic 🙂

ph00tbag did say "for now."

Right. It's still early days, but I expect the devs are working hard on this critical functionality.

I will meet him. On the battlefield.

of ideas? or the regular battlefield

This is a great application for AI because it can be as wrong and stupid as it wants and no one will notice

Conner O'Malley always living 5 minutes in the future

in fairness to CNN, 'Scott' is at least marginally less likely to grope an intern

Actually, hear me out. Hallicanates facts, can give contradictory answers to the same question, gets information exclusively from the internet? This might actually be the platonic ideal of a Republican strategist.

I don't think I will.

are we allowed to send the AI death threats

@actioncookbook.bsky.social you should sue

One of the things AI couldn't create a worse version of.

It got a series of facts completely wrong! Mission accomplished.

it keeps complaining about being cancelled whenever someone tries to reprogram it to stop constantly saying racial slurs.

But republican strategists are already soulless robots

what tf did I just read

There’s a piece of dog crap that’s been rotting on my neighbor’s lawn, so yes, Scott and I have already met

I feel fucking insane because I've messed with generative AI and it can do none of these things people think it can do

How is this different from every other "3 McKinsey M.Turks in a trench coat?"

This is great because it points out how useless Political Strategists are.

I’ll take the contrary position here. An AI has the same sense of consistent philosophy, the same basic tenets, and the same propensity to just make shit up. Why bother using a real human random number generator when a digital incel exists.

If AI takes over the job of “Republican strategist”, can it really be that bad?

Well at least we know it’ll never become self-aware

Once again, real life doing @bencollins.bsky.social /Tim Onion's work for him.

This is actually a perfect use case for AI because its propensity to make up random lies will be an asset, not a liability

God dammit my name is Scott. I hate this.

USE TH BIG MAGNET ON HIM

Couldn't be any worse than the real thing.

I'm seein' double here, four strategists!

Just change the color of the tie😂

Do they offer a peek into what the source material/content is for "Scott"?

Max headroom is now a reality.

If it helps speed along their descent into irrelevancy, I would prefer that all CNN "personalities" are replaced with AI. Couldn't be worse than Dana Bash.

Reminds me of this bit of genius broadcasting.

We missed our chance to kill AI, and now we have this.
