Reality television star Spencer Pratt released an AI-generated campaign advertisement on May 8 that portrays an idealized version of Los Angeles with clean streets and safe public spaces. The video follows his appearance at a mayoral debate earlier in the week. It contrasts the city's current challenges with a vision Pratt says his policies could deliver.
The 30-second spot shows actors playing police officers and firefighters delivering lines that highlight enforcement and infrastructure improvements. One officer states, “We’re even allowed to arrest criminals now with handcuffs and everything.” A firefighter adds, “Turns out it’s a lot easier to fight fires when there’s water in the reservoirs.” Pratt, who lost his home in the Pacific Palisades fires, has previously criticized the draining of the Santa Ynez reservoir ahead of last year’s wildfires.
