The New York City<\/a> chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America overwhelmingly voted to urge Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., to run for president in 2028 on Saturday.<\/p>\n

NYC-DSA approved a resolution making the call in a 291 to 123 vote at the chapter’s annual convention. Gustavo Gordillo, co-chair of the local DSA chapter, said the vote was not a formal endorsement, but is instead a “a commitment to encouraging and building the foundation for a presidential campaign.”<\/p>\n

“AOC and New York City DSA are committed to building a stronger democratic socialist movement and DSA will create the conditions for a presidential campaign capable of advancing a working-class political agenda,” Gordillo said at a press conference on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The chapter also laid out its plans to take over New York City’s <\/a>City Council, among other resolutions. Several of the party’s resolutions ran into controversy for appearing to be AI-generated, according to a report from Politico.<\/p>\n

When run through the AI detection tool Pangram, the 2029 City Council election resolution was rated 100% AI-generated, the outlet reported.<\/p>\n

Two other DSA resolutions were reportedly flagged as AI-generated as well, related to expanding DSA membership in community boards and interaction with South Asian communities.<\/p>\n

The chapter has a policy against AI usage and voted on Saturday to formally oppose the expansion of AI<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NYC-DSA co-chair Grace Mausser pushed back on the accuracy of the Pangram results in a statement to Politico.<\/p>\n

“We are highly skeptical of the results coming out of Pangram as resolutions are often authored and edited in consensus by multiple members,” she said, adding that Pangram\u2019s tools “are made by the same industry that\u2019s scraped writers\u2019 work without permission and now sells software to accuse people of not writing their own words,” Mausser said.<\/p>\n

Pangram claims that its service can correctly identify AI-generated text 9,999 out of 10,000 times. A University of Chicago study also found that Pangram has a near-zero error rate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
