Could HasanAbi’s Dog Controversy Hurt Zohran Mamdani’s Mayoral Chances?

Here’s something wild that I’ve been thinking about: Zohran Mamdani and his connection to HasanAbi. And now, with this alleged dog abuse clip, his chances in the NYC mayoral race could actually be affected. And what’s crazier?

On one hand, the corporate and techno-optimist perspective frames AI as a miraculous solution to efficiency, productivity, and innovation.
