Summary
Critics accused Trump and his administration of using ChatGPT to create its new tariff formula, which mirrors AI-generated outputs.
Commentators highlighted that the tariffs appear based on a simplistic calculation: divide the U.S. trade deficit with a country by total imports, or default to 10%.
Analysts slammed the approach as flawed and dangerous.
Markets reacted sharply, with the S&P 500 falling over 4% and Nasdaq dropping more than 5%.
there is a wikipedia article. they are a ‘territory’. they took a list of countries and territories, added basic trade data for each, and then they copy/pasted simple formulas down a couple of columns. the whole thing was probably concocted in notepad and excel in half an hour.
Trump’s people are stupid and lazy.
did you see the bit where the diaper-in-chief recognized Taiwan as a separate country?

Giving them too much credit. They probably just had ChatGPT do everything.
