Social Media Reactions
Despite her apparent excitement for the launch, users on X were not impressed by her use of AI. "Melania outsourcing her own voice to AI is peak Trump: too lazy to read her own story but happy to fake sincerity with a robot," one user wrote. "Guess 'I really care' really means 'I really don't.'"
"Why wouldn't you read it yourself?" another asked. "That's disappointing."
"Guess that's peak laziness for you," said a third.
"Well considering she probably didn't write it herself it makes sense she doesn't want to read it!" said another.
"What a joke," a final user wrote.
