In a press conference this week on New York City’s $12 billion budget gap, Mayor Zohran Mamdani zeroed in on the previous administration’s artificial intelligence chatbot as one of “a number of different things we’re going to pursue for savings.”

I've seen one today: "Mamdani admits massive NYC deficit! Proof socialism doesn't work!". Dude, he wasn't mayor a month ago, pretty sure socialism isn't the problem here...

    Is that a real headline? If so, that's extremely dishonest journalism...

    Not the first time I read that kind of BS. In Cadiz (Spain), a left wing major said 1 month after being appointed that the previous right wing major left nothing but spider webs in the accounts. The right wing tried to push that as "only a month and he has broken the city".
