Just in: An artificial intelligence bot associated with Anthropic accessed publicly available voter data through Georgia’s data hub, according to officials with the Secretary of State’s office. The bot did not access a voter file or Georgia’s voter registration system, officials tell me. “This was publicly available data accessed through our data hub,” said Jordan Fuchs, a top deputy to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. “It did not get into the voter registration system.” #gapol

Analysis: For Trump, results have often revealed the art of no deal
