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%.

        This fact is really funny. Musk’s own ai is like, paraphrasing, “hey, he tried to change my code, in order to make me shut up about what a piece of shit he is and how dangerous this loser is to mankind.”
