Summary
Critics accused Trump and his administration of using ChatGPT to create its new tariff formula, which mirrors AI-generated outputs.
Commentators highlighted that the tariffs appear based on a simplistic calculation: divide the U.S. trade deficit with a country by total imports, or default to 10%.
Analysts slammed the approach as flawed and dangerous.
Markets reacted sharply, with the S&P 500 falling over 4% and Nasdaq dropping more than 5%.
I’m certain so-called AI was used…
I’m equally certain Mafia Don Mangolini hasn’t the first clue how to make use of technology in any form (other than making a stupid tweet/post)…
This is another effort foisted upon us by Elonazi and/or his Department of Gratifying Elonazi children.

Why go through the effort to put 0 population Heard Island and McDonald Islands?
there is a wikipedia article. they are a ‘territory’. they took a list of countries and territories, added basic trade data for each, and then they copy/pasted simple formulas down a couple of columns. the whole thing was probably concocted in notepad and excel in half an hour.
did you see the bit where the diaper-in-chief recognized Taiwan as a separate country?
they probably prompted to list all territories and didn’t go to the trouble of deleting unpopulated islands
It’s because the entire penguin species is plotting to overthrow the United States, and by extension, overthrow Trump. Obviously, Trump had to show the penguins that he isn’t going to tolerate their interference.
A sharpie for hurricanes, an LLM for trade policy. What a fucking world.
Shit, just said the same thing. This is why I should cruise the comments first.
This is literally the plot of why Dune doesn’t have thinking machines.
I found it very telling that HBO re-wrote the entire Butlerian jihad because the robots were evil, rather than the actual point where using machines to replace humans was wicked and evil
And the whole reason replacing humans with AI was determined to be evil was because ONE oligarch decided to offload more and more of his responsibilities to AI.
It made people’s lives way worse until ultimately he gave AI military responsibility then everything went off the rails
We are literally a Black Mirror episode watched right now in some parallel universe. Probably with the viewers going “it’s a little far fetched!”
