GOP’s AI Army: Bots Called to Vote, Humans Left in Confusion

KEY POINTS

•Republican strategists are using AI tools like Aaru and MiroFish to simulate voter opinions and predict ad responses.
•Democrats maintain AI skepticism, banning ChatGPT and Claude but allowing Gemini for data tasks, slowing adoption.
•GOP campaigns increasingly launch AI-generated ads and deepfake videos, including Mike Collins' controversial Georgia Senate spot.

In the immortal struggle of tech noobs vs. tech evangelists, Republicans are strapping AI jetpacks on their 2024 campaigns like it’s their last season of 'The Apprentice.' GOP operatives package voter AI-bots from Aaru and MiroFish – real names, not sushi dishes – to simulate opinions on the Iran war and test ads faster than a TikTok trend dies. Meanwhile, Democrats, trapped in existential AI panic and DNC bans on ChatGPT and Claude (sorry Boomers), only grudgingly tap Gemini for coding paperwork. The National Republican Senatorial Committee even rolls out video game-themed ads, probably because Mario Kart beats policy debate. And Mike Collins' Georgian deepfake campaign ad, featuring Jon Ossoff complimenting Instagram farms, signals the 2024 slogan: 'If it’s unethical and glitchy, it’s working.'
