Nithya Raman, a candidate in the Los Angeles mayoral race, recently confronted Spencer Pratt over his use of AI-generated videos to promote his campaign. Raman expressed that such tactics are insulting to Hollywood workers, emphasizing her husband's connection to the industry. The videos in question, which Pratt has shared on his official X account, depict both Raman and incumbent Mayor Karen Bass negatively while portraying Pratt as a heroic figure. According to a recent Emerson College poll conducted from May 9-10, Bass leads the race with 30% support, followed by Pratt at 22% and Raman at 19%. As the June 2 primary election approaches, all three candidates are reportedly gaining support among undecided voters. The debate showcased Raman's difficulties in the race, with a spokesperson for Bass asserting that Raman is not meeting expectations. One particularly popular AI video transforms Pratt into a superhero, presenting him as a savior of a dystopian Los Angeles, while depicting Bass as a villain, which has contributed to Pratt's rising popularity.
