Never attribute to AI that which can be adequately explained by incompetence.
If you dig in to the tariff calculation, it’s simply trade deficit / 2, the other two variables are constants that cancel eachother out. AI would probably do a better job making a complex algorithm, this is just a lazy human adding some flourishes to BS their way through.
Ah, ok. I would’ve expected AI to hallucinate something more interesting. I just assumed it was just a shoddy job at hiding the simplicity of the formula and making it look more “mathy.”
