The White House jumped on a ChatGPT meme whose aftertaste was already sour.

On Thursday afternoon , the White House posted a photo of a crying detainee that it bragged was an arrested fentanyl trafficker and undocumented immigrant.

It added an almost certainly AI -generated cartoon of an officer handcuffing the sobbing woman.

The move amounted to a bizarre product advertisement from a company President Trump has close ties to.

Hayao Miyazaki , whose name is synonymous with the animation studio, is one of the most famously anti-AI artists in the world.

Using Ghibli 's work specifically for publicity is a power move, it loudly tells the artists whose creations make ChatGPT function, and we’ll take what we want.
