Ohio Secretary of State announces AI tool for election workers

Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose announced the deployment of an artificial intelligence for election workers in all 88 counties, according to a press release from Nov. 13.

The AI tool is called 'Elections Virtual Assistant,' abbreviated as 'Eva.' In response to prompt-based questions by the user, the program draws from election handbooks and delivers a concise answer.

"She's definitely a data nerd and a bit on the wonky side, but I'm not sure I've met someone who can answer a common question about election administration as quickly and effectively as Eva," LaRose said.

Eva only draws from government-issued sources instead of the internet to ensure the accuracy of its answers.
