Can Chat GPT run? Is it legally possible? Like Kasporov vs deep blue.


> Can Chat GPT run? Is it legally possible?

No, computer software, rocks, old shoes, and other things that aren’t people cannot run for the Presidency.


And even if we were to consider it a person, it's not old enough.


No. Must be a legally born US citizen, have been a citizen for at least 14 years meaning one could leave the country for a while and at least age 35. A president could of course use LLM's as resources if they felt it appropriate.

You don't lose your citizenship when you leave the country. You'd have to give up your American citizenship somehow, like Boris Johnson did. Hmm...he could actually move back here, become a US citizen again, 14 years later run for president, and be the first one to have lead both the UK and the US?

Edit: he just needs to have lived in the US for 14 years, not have been a citizen for 14 years. He would still probably need to re-establish his US citizenship before running (but the constitution isn't exactly clear if a natural born US citizen but not a US citizen now can run for president after living in the USA for 14 years; its unlikely to ever come up anyways).
