GPT cited Harris’s commitment to social justice and equality, including her proposals for immigration reform, racial justice and women’s reproductive rights.
ChatGPT stated: “While Trump has been perceived to have an advantage in economic policy due to his business background, recent analyses suggest that Harris’s economic plans are rated favourably by economists for their potential to benefit the middle class and address inequality. Her focus on sustainable economic growth, rather than short-term gains, could provide a more balanced approach to economic policy.”

GPT also noted that Harris’s approach to foreign policy and tax system has been described as strategic and aligned with traditional American allies.
In contrast, Trump’s policies were seen as likely to increase costs for American families with a national sales tax on imported products that could cost a typical family nearly $4,000 per year.
