About six months ago, Chat GPT came out of nowhere and quickly became the fastest
app to hit 100 million users, which it did in less than two months.
Michael Schader, CTO of Ad Impact, spoke during AAPC's
webinar on June 14 about how new developments in artificial intelligence will
affect our daily work and whole industries, including politics. |
Balancing Efficiency & Ethics
Michael talked about how AI tools are making it easier for campaigns to
write copy for fundraising emails and try "lines of attack" against
sample voter profiles, even if only in a basic way. But he warned us of the dangers
for political campaigns if they use generative AI to deceive voters, which the
AAPC recently condemned. |
