The video, in which ‘Cuomo’ appears as a subway train driver, a stockbroker and a window cleaner, comes as the New York City mayoral race tightens ahead of polling day on November 4. His team described it as a “positive” use of AI in political campaigning - but many online commenters are not convinced. The ad was also slammed on X by Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic candidate in the mayoral race.
