This is the best summary I could come up with:
A bill about water meters that a Brazilian city council unanimously voted to pass in October was revealed to have been entirely written by ChatGPT, its sponsor disclosed last week in an X post.
Six days later, Porto Alegre councilman Ramiro Rosário shared that the legislation was written by OpenAI's chatbot, The Washington Post reported.
In response, ChatGPT responded with solutions that "astounded" Rosário, he told The Post, suggesting two innovative ideas for a problem that plagued his constituents for months.
According to the Associated Press, Hamilton Sossmeier initially said it set a "dangerous precedent" and was annoyed that Rosário wasn't transparent about ChatGPT having written the proposal.
Rosário told Business Insider that he kept the fact that it was generated by ChatGPT a secret because he feared that lawmakers' prejudices about AI might have prevented it from even being voted on.
Reflecting on the significance of the AI-generated proposal, Rosário told BI: "I support the idea that artificial intelligence can help optimize resources and the time of political agents and public servants, allowing them to focus on what is truly essential for their work."
