Melania Trump fuels AI theory as people notice bizarre issue with her book

Melania Trump is being accused of using artificial intelligence after noticing some strange things about her new memoir.

Melania is under fire just months after raising eyebrows when she announced that the audio recording of her book would be AI-generated, rather than being recorded herself.

"Let the future of publishing begin,” she wrote on X to make the announcement. “I am honored to bring you Melania – The AI Audiobook – narrated entirely using artificial intelligence in my own voice."

To this, there was a lot of scepticism about why she’d not just record using her own voice, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg now.

Now, people believe she has used ChatGPT to write her memoir - or at least hired someone who did.

A lot of people have called her out because of the telltale AI jargon that we have all come to associate with how ChatGPT writes.

From adding, ‘outlining’, ‘underscoring’, ‘highlighting’, ‘reinforcing’, and several other words that are standard for ChatGPT, it seems that readers are convinced it was created via artificial intelligence, or at least some parts were.

A Redditor called out sections of the book, accusing Melania's self-titled memoir for allegedly not being genuine about her writing source.

They wrote, while posting several screenshots of sentences they believe were enhanced or AI-generated: “Did Melania Trump use ChatGPT to write her memoir?”

The screenshots included sentences such as:

“It was a humbling experience to engage with such a revered figure on a personal level, emphasizing the importance of building relationships through genuine interactions.”

“The crowd's ecstatic reaction was unforgettable, adding to the excitement of our visit.”

“The experiences and stories from these encounters remain vivid, shaping my perspective and reinforcing my dedication to serve others.”

To this, people were up in arms, with many slamming the First Lady, even accusing her of hiring a ghostwriter.

One person wrote: “You mean did her ghostwriter use ChatGPT as a ghostwriter? Those passages certainly have the ‘pretentious robot with a broken thesaurus’ scent of ChatGPT, but it wouldn’t surprise me that someone would use it in the course of writing a several hundred page book.

“What would piss me off would be if the whole book was written like that. I’ve come $80+ textbooks from otherwise reputable publishers that were written entirely by ChatGPT, technical content and all. Absolute garbage.”

One commenter poked fun at the way her sentences are structured, copying ChatGPT’s flow and writing: “The vibrant landscape of the glib prose, a dizzying concatenation of long-winded sentences that indelibly flowed with ceaseless verbosity, unfolded as an intricate tapestry of buzzword-laden generalisations, vividly showcasing the abject failure of large language models to comprehensively capture substantial meaning beyond vague abstractions, crucially adding to the inescapable impression that the loquacious text was indescribably deficient in an elusive essence of humanity.”

Another simply said: “Sounds like ChatGPT indeed!”

Others made fun of the overuse of long-winded words, stating: “This seems like when you used to try and reach the word count in your high school essay so you throw some useless words in.”
