Perhaps the most worrying aspect of this to me is that whoever made it probably didn’t even need an especially descriptive prompt to render this hitlerite nonsense
Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.
