If Desantis is powered by ChatGPT, there are several kinks to be worked out. For example, when the Florida governor was asked what he was eating for dinner after a debate one night, he answered, “Yea, we’ll let her rip.” Not quite a normal, human response, unlike others who responded with “salmon” or “enchiladas.” In another instance, someone at a car show made a light joke, causing Desantis to convulse and erupt in extreme laughter, with everyone staring at his malfunction.

I had to doublecheck to see if I wasn't reading The Onion, or is Gizmodo doing joke articles now. Is Desantis really this mechanical in real life?

If someone told me that a public figure was really a giant lizard wearing a peoplesuit, there are only two people I’d genuinely believe: Mark Zuckerberg, and Ron DeSantis.

DeSantis’ mannerisms are just so… Off? It’s like a weird sort of uncanny valley, where his smile is obviously fake and feels like a trap. It feels like an alien trying to act human.

Rick Scott as well.
