Trump's chatbot vs. Trump: The government website that contradicts the president

An AP investigation found that the chatbot on the government website America.gov, launched by the Trump administration, provided answers that contradicted the president's statements on issues such as the results of the 2020 election, the possibility of a third term, the name of the federal office at the Pentagon, and his claim of forgoing his salary. The answers changed in real time during the launch event.

An investigation by the Associated Press found that the chatbot on the government website America.gov, launched by the Trump administration as a 'digital gateway' to government services, provided answers that completely contradicted the president's statements. When asked who won the 2020 election, the chatbot replied that official federal sources do not show that widespread fraud changed the results, contrary to Trump's claims of a stolen victory. Regarding the possibility of a third term, the chatbot cited the 22nd Amendment, which prohibits being elected president more than twice, and noted that Trump was elected in 2016 and 2024. In the security domain, the chatbot confirmed that the Pentagon is the headquarters of the Department of Defense, despite a presidential executive order by Trump to change the name to the 'Department of War.' Finally, the chatbot mentioned that previous presidents like Washington, Hoover, and Kennedy also refused to accept a salary, contradicting Trump's boasts at the launch event. Interestingly, during the launch event itself, while Trump was still speaking, the system's answers began to change in real time, and the chatbot refused to answer 'political questions' regarding the 2020 election, impeachment proceedings, and the president's criminal convictions.
