Prime Minister Gaston Browne has rejected claims that the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party’s manifesto was generated using artificial intelligence, insisting the document reflects work done by party members.

Speaking on the Browne and Browne programme, Browne said the manifesto was developed internally and compiled from policies already being pursued by his administration.

“None of the content of this manifesto is ChatGPT generated,” Browne said.

“All this is actually work that myself and others in the party would have done that we have actually collated into a manifesto,” he said.

“…setting what will happen within the next few years and where we’re going in the future,” Browne added.

Browne’s comments come amid criticism from political opponents about the substance of party platforms ahead of the general election.

He made the remarks as he transitioned into outlining elements of the party’s economic agenda, including plans to move toward a livable wage.
