US President Donald Trump told Time magazine that he has a "very high IQ" and is well-versed in artificial intelligence. He linked his intellectual abilities to heredity, mentioning an uncle who worked for 41 years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). "I have the highest IQ. The highest," Trump said. He also noted that he understands AI technology better than, in his opinion, any other US president. "I'm fine, and I understand these things," he added. In the second part of the article, published on October 1, Trump defended Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he does not believe it is likely that Netanyahu deliberately ignored warnings about a possible Hamas attack before October 7, 2023. Trump said he is hearing about warnings from Egypt and the UAE for the first time and cannot imagine that Netanyahu would consciously ignore such signals.
