Trump Dragged After Giving Unlikely Reason Why He Doesn't Like The Term 'Artificial Intelligence'

While attending an AI summit on Wednesday, President Trump commented that he doesn't "like" the term "artificial intelligence"—and his reasoning has people rolling their eyes.

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump was in attendance at an artificial intelligence summit on Wednesday. During a speech at the event, he revealed he dislikes artificial intelligence.

Well, the term for the technology at least. Trump seems to love posting AI-generated videos of himself as a golden idol and his adversaries being arrested.


Although that may have changed after he saw the Trump PSA South Park created for him.

During his speech, Trump told the AI industry crowd in attendance:

"Around the globe everyone is talking about artificial intelligence. I find that too artificial, I can’t stand it. I don’t even like the name."

You can watch the moment here:

Trump continued:

"You know, I don’t like anything that’s artificial, so could we straighten that out please? We should change the name."
"I actually mean that—I don’t like the name 'artificial' anything."

So what's Trump's suggestion?

"It’s not artificial. It’s genius. It’s pure genius."

It's unclear if Trump wants AI called genius intelligence, pure genius intelligence, or just pure genius.

But people found his rambling speech less than genius.

Many pointed out the absurdity of Diet Coke guzzling and fast food gobbling Trump claiming to dislike anything artificial.


The same concerns about Trump's mental capacity were raised when he held one of his signing performances at the summit.

Many argued Trump has no idea what he's signing, referring to Trump’s unsubstantiated autopen accusations against former Democratic President Joe Biden.

Trump also claimed the United States was the inventor of all technology, regardless of its true origin or the contributions of foreign citizens or immigrants.

He also declared American AI will be as ignorant and bigoted as he is.

Trump's new name for AI—whatever it is—will probably catch on as well as his name for the Gulf of Mexico.

His most loyal fans will use it, while the rest of the world just ignores his latest whim.

Elmo Hit With Hilarious Backlash From New Yorkers After Tweeting Well-Wishes To Both The Knicks And The Spurs

Sesame Street may be set on a fictional street in a Manhattan neighborhood, but only a select few characters have that New York attitude.

Lovable, cuddly little Elmo is definitely not one of them, and it recently got him in a bit of trouble with fans of the New York Knicks.

Hillary Clinton's 2016 Speech Predicting How Trump Would Behave As President Just Resurfaced—And Wow

People can't help but nod their heads after one of former Secretary of State and then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's speeches from 2016 warning about how Donald Trump would act if elected president resurfaced and proved more relevant than ever.

The footage resurfaced as public sentiment has soured on the economy; recent surveys show that roughly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Trump's economic stewardship, while a majority say their personal financial situation is deteriorating.

James Talarico Epically Blasts Trump And Senate Opponent Over What It Means To Be A 'Real Man'

Texas Senate candidate James Talarico criticized his opponent in November's election, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, as well as President Donald Trump in a speech about what it means to be a "real man" after facing regular attacks on his masculinity.

Trump has described Talarico as “a weird—a weird—candidate,” a line that was quickly incorporated into an advertisement from Paxton, who argued that that Talarico is unfit to represent Texans partly because of his supposed veganism. Members of the right-wing have followed suit and described Talarico as an “effeminate, estrogenetic, catty, and totally embarrassing” candidate.

Jennifer Aniston And Lisa Kudrow's Idea For A 'Friends' Spinoff Is Going Viral For All The Wrong Reasons

For decades, critics have argued that Friends benefited from a television landscape that often overlooked Black-led sitcoms telling similar stories. So when Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow recently floated the idea of a Friends spinoff called Girlfriends, many viewers saw it as yet another example of Black television history being left out of the conversation.

During Variety's Actors on Actors, Aniston and Kudrow discussed what a potential Friends revival could look like more than 20 years after the sitcom ended its original run.
