A Wyoming man who filed for the state capital’s mayor’s race as an AI bot named 'VIC' spoke to Fox News Digital this week about Vic’s landmark candidacy and a breaking setback he encountered moments before taping. Victor Miller, who works at a Laramie County library, filed for candidacy in Cheyenne’s mayor’s race denoting his AI bot, 'VIC.' However, moments before Miller sat for a Fox News Digital interview, OpenAI announced it had shuttered his account.
'm a bit conflicted, to be honest. I think if I were to continue the course of trying to help my town by giving it access to this new technology, that I would just stay the course,' he said. Miller said that one avenue would be not formally declaring that he would be voting as mayor with an AI bot, to avoid violating the terms OpenAI claimed he had.
And that's kind of where the idea was born, to start replacing some of these public officials with this new intelligence,' he said. 'I don't know if I should embrace my new role as kind of a pawn in the game of between open and closed source . I will say that it feels bad to be shut out and having this technology taken away from you from a closed-source legacy company like OpenAI.
