WATCH: Veep Thoughts With Kamala Harris (Vol. 22)

Vice President Kamala Harris campaigned in Pennsylvania on Friday, and was forced to go off script when a reporter asked how she was feeling about her prospects in the pivotal swing state. As is often the case, her answer sounded like it was written by ChatGPT:

I am feeling very good about Pennsylvania because there are a lot of people in Pennsylvania who deserve to be seen and heard. That's why I'm here in Johnstown, and I will be continuing to travel around the state to make sure that I'm listening as much as we are talking, and ultimately I feel very strongly that [you] gotta earn every vote, and that means spending time with folks in the communities where they live, and so that's why I'm here. We're going to be spending a lot more time in Pennsylvania.

We were curious, so we asked ChatGPT to answer a similar question from the perspective of a politician campaigning in Pennsylvania. As predicted, the computer's answer was significantly more substantive and articulate:

In Pennsylvania, my campaign aims to connect deeply with the diverse communities across the state. I hope to address key local issues, such as economic development, infrastructure improvements, and healthcare access, while also emphasizing our shared values of fairness and opportunity. By engaging directly with voters, listening to their concerns, and presenting practical solutions, I want to build a broad coalition of support that reflects Pennsylvania's rich cultural and economic landscape. Ultimately, my goal is to ensure that every Pennsylvanian feels heard and represented in our vision for the country's future.

That was probably the last time Harris will talk to reporters before Election Day.

Have a great weekend!
