An AI-generated press release? I cannot wrap my head around that one. Would a corporation or politician have an AI just sitting there occasionally releasing random statements? Press releases are carefully controlled announcements with legal implications. They are normally authorized by all sorts of departments before release, a process that takes far more effort than actually penning the language. And people have to decide when and where a press release is appropriate long before actually writing it. I cannot see how AI would insert itself. Would President Biden "hire" an AI to sit in the corner listening to chatter in the office and occasionally just release generated statements after interesting events?

Write a press release expressing how we are regretful to do this step, but how it will help the company stay competitive in the long term. Remember [legal requirements here]". Then that draft can make the rounds through legal and every other stakeholder, until you have a finished product.
