“Trump became AI-enthralled – after chatting for hours with Grok about himself
Donald Trump has become increasingly fond of artificial intelligence. In a lengthy profile ahead of the midterm elections, Time describes how AI has taken an ever greater role in the president’s worldview.
A key event is said to have been when Elon Musk visited the White House late last year. According to a source, Trump spent hours asking Musk’s AI chatbot Grok about his own presidency and legacy.
He also asked Grok how Venezuelans would react if the US overthrew President Nicolás Maduro. The chatbot responded that Maduro was a very unpopular dictator and that the people would likely celebrate his fall.
When the US overthrew Maduro about a month later and cheers erupted in the streets, Trump is said to have been convinced that Grok was brilliant.”
