Disgraced Fired Former CNN Propagandist Jim Acosta "Interviews" an AI, Supposedly "Modeled" on a Dead Teenager, Programmed to Spit Out Gun Control Propaganda

How much lower can he go?

The answer is none. None more low.

Liberal journalist Jim Acosta "interviewed" the artificially animated avatar of deceased teenager Joaquin Oliver to promote a gun control message on Monday.

Working with the gun control group Change the Ref, founded by Oliver's parents, Acosta had a conversation on his Substack with an avatar created by the father of the son, who was killed in the Parkland high school shooting in 2018. He would have turned 25 on Monday.

"I would like to know what your solution would be for gun violence," Acosta asked.

"Great question. I believe in a mix of stronger gun control laws, mental health support, and community engagement. We need to create safe spaces for conversations and connections, making sure everyone feels seen and heard," Oliver's avatar said. "It's about building a culture of kindness and understanding. What do you think of that?"

"I think that's a great idea, Joaquin," the ex-CNN correspondent said.

The literal NPC is programmed to spit out absurd taking points and then end every statement with "What do you think about that?" or "How about you?" to simulate human conservation.

Acosta must have been tipped that the NPC was programmed to talk about the sports teams the actual teen liked, because otherwise, why would he ask about them?

Acosta also asked questions like what Oliver's favorite team, movies and TV shows were. The avatar answered and often asked Acosta the question back, sometimes sounding robotic, sometimes highly enthusiastic.

"Star Wars is such an epic saga. The adventures, the characters and that iconic music are unforgettable," Oliver's avatar said at one point.

All intended to humanize the artificial intelligence.

Wait, it's not even artificial intelligence. It's just a basic language-parsing script.

...

Afterward, Acosta spoke to Oliver's father, Manuel, who thanked him for his participation in the interview. Acosta marveled at the avatar being able to engage with him, saying he was "speechless" at the technology and really felt he was speaking with the actual person.

"I understand that this is AI," Manuel Oliver said, saying he wasn't trying to truly bring his son back. "Sadly, I can't. However, the technology is out there. I can hear his voice again."

No, you're not hearing his voice.

Bearing Arms doubts Jim Acosta's motives, for some reason.

A more realistic take on Acosta's sit-down, though, is that the former CNN journo is looking for clicks in all the wrong places and an attention-grabbing stunt like this one was guaranteed to generate interest, even if it didn't produce any actual news. Or rather, the news that was produced is that Acosta has sunk to a new low in a bid to get attract eyeballs.

This clip shows much more of the fake "interview" with the literal NPC. It's worth watching to see Jim Acosta do his level-best to push this Artificial Propaganda bot, including "chatting" with it about the Miami Heat.

It's just a grisly theatrical performance from a couple of shitty ex-Theater Kids from start to finish.

Even lefties on BlueSky ask Acosta: "What the **** are you doing?"
