AI is described as amazing, with claims that job numbers and the number of people working in the United States are higher than ever. Employment figures are noted as peaking in January, but the increase is attributed to population growth rather than being a clear measure of economic strength. The president also shares AI-generated images and videos on Truth Social, including a post promoting the U.S. Space Force that depicts missile firing from space. He also predicts gas prices will fall after a war with Iran ends, citing concerns about Iran obtaining nuclear weapons and asserting that oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz will increase. He claims a blockade has prevented ships from passing.
"While speaking to the press outside of Air Force One, Trump was asked what he would say to Americans scared by the rise of AI. The president said he has no concerns. I'll tell you, AI has been amazing because we have more jobs, more people working right now in the United States by far then we ever had before, Trump said."
"As multiple reports have pointed out, Trump is partially right in terms of raw numbers with an employment peak being hit in January. However, this raw metric is driven by population growth and not seen by experts as an indicator of the strength of an economy."
"One recent post promoting the U.S. Space Force depicted Trump firing missiles at Earth from space. While Trump often takes to sharing AI-generated pictures and videos and sharing his own AI images in Truth Social posts, the content continues to blend political messaging with AI imagery."
"On Iran, I had no choice because they were going to have a nuclear weapon. We're not going to give them a nuclear weapon. But that's going to end soon one way or the other. Oil is going to come tumbling down. There's so much oil, we have 1600 ships in the Strait [of Hormuz] that are loaded up with oil. That are going to be coming out very soon so we'll have to see."
