In Andrew Cuomo’s newest AI-generated advert, his mayoral rival Zohran Mamdani sprints via the New York Metropolis streets earlier than reducing to a scene of him consuming rice along with his arms—a picture many on-line referred to as a racist caricature.
The advert then shifts to a montage of AI-generated clips, together with a Black man sporting a keffiyeh and shoplifting, a person beating a girl, a supposed intercourse trafficker, a drug seller, and different portrayals of criminality. Every determine is digitally rendered to look as if they help Mamdani, making a montage that observers extensively criticized as racist and deceptive.
