A parody artificial intelligence chatbot launched by a candidate trying to replace Nancy Pelosi in Congress was taken down Friday after the former House speaker attacked the bot for being “sexist.”
California state Sen. Scott Wiener launched the chatbot this week to mock fellow Democrat and city supervisor Connie Chan, who earned Pelosi’s endorsement. Wiener and Chan will face against each other in November for Pelosi’s seat.
The website ConnieChan.ai bills itself as “the world’s first AI trained to say no to anything you ask,” a knock on Chan’s reputation among critics as a progressive NIMBY who has opposed numerous housing proposals.
The Chan campaign unsurprisingly was not a fan of Wiener’s unique campaigning tactic. Pelosi then stepped in to echo her own fury over the tactic.
“Women have spent generations fighting to have our own voices heard in the halls of power. We should not have to now fight against artificial intelligence putting words in our mouths,” Pelosi said Thursday, releasing a long statement with the backing of numerous female elected officials.
The statement accuses Wiener for using AI to impersonate a female voice, which is a “gross misuse of technology and reflects a disturbing willingness to erase women’s agency.” It further claimed that because Chan is a non-white woman, such harms “compound with racial stereotypes.”

Please define "woman". And please do it in such a way that Jumanji Elizondo Mountain Dew Brown Jackson can understand.
New buzz word: AIcist.
All these decades in politics and Pelosi still doesn't realize all's fair in a campaign.
LOL!
It's always 'women this...' and 'women that....' and 'women's struggles...' but they won't even define or acknowledge what a woman is.
By the way, stealing that!
Yep. 👍
They are so tough they can take anything! Not.
Wait until they see all the ai videos of the new trans players in the WNBA.

Modern feminism can't agree on what a woman is. It's defended violent male predators in women's prisons and stayed silent on UK rape gangs to avoid being called racist.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali: "I will always defend the rights of women—and therefore I cannot call myself a feminist."
Use it in good health.
Charlie added more to American culture than Connie.
