So let me get this straight: Trump’s tariff formula (a) was the result of an AI query which (b) was misunderstood by a human and (c) misapplied to (d) incomplete data on the basis of (e) bad economic thinking to (f) crash the world economy
This is, of course, an AI problem. Probably Mark Zuckerberg is to blame. Therefore the USA should invade Iraq. In Britain we can prevent it happening by issuing Digital Identity Cards.Dropsafe
