Democratic Rep. Jennifer Wexton of Virginia made history on Thursday by becoming the first lawmaker to utilize an artificial intelligence-generated model of her voice to address the House floor. Wexton, who is battling progressive Supranuclear palsy (PSP), expressed how the condition has affected her ability to speak and move freely.
In a poignant moment, Wexton shared, 'My battle with progressive Supranuclear palsy, or PSP, has robbed me of my ability to use my full voice and move around in the ways that I used to, rather than striding confidently onto the House floor to vote.'
