Wyoming mayoral candidate promises to let OpenAI bot govern capital city, faces backlash from tech giant

A librarian running as a nonpartisan candidate for mayor of Cheyenne, Wyoming, promises to allow an artificial intelligence bot created by OpenAI to govern the state’s capital city.

Last month, Laramie County was forced to make the distinction that Victor Miller, a 42-year-old human man, would be listed on Tuesday’s primary ballot among five other candidates running for mayor of Cheyenne and "there is no Artificial Intelligence (AI) candidate running for office in Laramie County."

During a recent library meet-and-greet, however, Miller stood behind a lectern that read "AI FOR MAYOR," the Washington Post reported.

Miller pitched to a sparse audience that he would exclusively run the city with an AI bot called "VIC" for "Virtual Integrated Citizen" if elected, according to the Post.
