During a recent MSNBC broadcast, Rachel Maddow pointed out how the AI bots are confused over what to make of Donald Trump's drama with the Jeffrey Epstein case, as some Republicans think he should be more transparent about the findings."We're running into some funny situations because of the combination of AI-driven slop online and the extreme and bizarre news environment that is the second term of Donald Trump's presidency," the left-leaning journalist said. "You no longer have to pay a troll farm of teenagers in Macedonia or Saint Petersburg, Russia, to pretend to be right-wing Americans saying political things online. Now, instead, they just train these automated bots to do it. Here's the problem: Artificial Intelligence is not actually intelligent."

Rachel Maddow claimed the Donald Trump-supporting AI bots went from applauding Attorney General Pam Bondi's work on the Jeffrey Epstein case to criticizing the lack of findings."These bots are trained to mimic MAGA voices online. They are trained to sound like Trump supporters, based on the kind of stuff that Trump supporters say," the news anchor said. "So, when it comes to the Jeffrey Epstein story, the bots are malfunctioning!"

To further her argument about why the AI-bots are confused, Rachel Maddow pointed to Donald Trump's alleged connections to Jeffrey Epstein through the people he's employed."If you're going to try to be pro-Trump on the Jeffrey Epstein issue, what are you going to say?" she questioned. "I mean, what happened to the lawyer who got Epstein his bizarrely lenient plea deal when he was first arrested on s** trafficking charges in Florida?"
"Oh, Trump hired him to be his own lawyer," Maddow noted of attorney Alan Dershowitz.
"What happened to the U.S. attorney who gave Jeffrey Epstein that bizarrely lenient plea deal? Oh, Trump put him in his cabinet in his first term. Well, who then prosecuted Epstein a second time when he was brought up on federal charges? Oh, that was the SDNY line prosecutor who Trump inexplicably fired last week," the Democrat claimed. "If you're supposed to be a pro-Trump bot commenting on the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, what are you going to do? You're going to melt down. They don't know what to say anymore."
