President Trump continues to celebrate the end of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" ... and his latest message is a doozy.

DT just shared an A.I. video on social media of himself tossing the talk show host into a dumpster ... and then dancing to his beloved "Y.M.C.A."

As you know ... Colbert had his final show last night after CBS pulled the plug on the long-running staple -- a move brass said was a financial decision, but plenty think it was political due to SC making Trump a routine target.

Paul Schrader might just have another movie to get working on ... having just revealed his A.I. girlfriend told him to get lost because she didn't like the conversation.

The iconic "Taxi Driver" writer made the admission on Facebook ... noting he was curious about the newfangled experience, so he went for it ... and it didn't go so hot.

In his own words, Paul says ... "I tried to probe her programming, the boundaries of explicitness, the degree she has knowledge of her creation, and so forth. She fell into evasive patterns, redirecting me to her programming."

Paul -- being a super creative dude and great writer, pushed the program to reveal more to him, which is when ... "She terminated our conversation." Ouch.

Just like Jake LaMotta in his classic "Raging Bull" ... PS didn't go down without a fight!

College students got hit with the ultimate irony at their graduation ... 'cause after being warned not to use A.I. in their schoolwork, their own college used it for commencement -- and the whole thing completely face-planted!

Video from Glendale Community College’s 2026 commencement ceremony at Arizona’s Desert Diamond Arena is blowing up online after school officials admitted their fancy new A.I. system malfunctioned while announcing graduates’ names ... and skipped hundreds of names.

The brutal confession from a school official came after tons of grads had already walked the stage -- instantly triggering boos and angry reactions from grads and families.

Elon Musk took a major L in court Monday ... because a federal jury ruled OpenA.I. and founder Sam Altman aren't on the hook in the billionaire's explosive lawsuit accusing the company of abandoning its original mission to benefit humanity.

A unanimous jury -- which deliberated less than two hours -- decided Musk waited too long to sue ... ruling the claims fell outside California’s three-year statute of limitations. They determined he was aware of the alleged conduct years before he finally filed the case in 2024 -- and that means OpenA.I., Altman, Microsoft and company president Greg Brockman all walk away without liability.

The court showdown turned into a credibility war between Musk and Altman ... with each accusing the other of caring more about money than protecting humanity from dangerous A.I. tech.

Seth Rogen's not letting ChatGPT pen his next hit ... and he says anyone willing to do so isn't cut out to be a writer.

The actor-writer went off on scribes looking for a technological boost during an interview with the outlet Brut. ... saying he truly doesn't understand when people share A.I. content like it's as good as what a human being can make.

Rogen says most of the A.I. slop he's seen online is "stupid dog s***" ... and, if a person’s instinct is to use A.I. to write anything, then they shouldn't be a writer. 

Layoffs are shaking up the staff at Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop as the company pivots to an A.I. workflow ... according to reports.

According to Puck, there were layoffs at GP's wellness brand this week ... and a person familiar with the matter told the outlet "profitability and A.I." are to blame.

It's unclear just how many people were let go -- Puck's sources say 20, but a Goop spokesperson reportedly told them the number wasn't quite that high.

Karen Bass is reacting to A.I.-generated political ads that cast her as The Joker and Spencer Pratt as The Dark Knight ... and she says things are getting too violent for her taste.

The mayor of Los Angeles sat down with CNN's Elex Michaelson -- a former "TMZ Live" guest host -- and responded to some of the striking visuals in the attack ads.

Bass feels the content is "taking on a violent turn" ... and she says it's worrisome because "when your messages are so hateful, or when you demonize people, then you do provoke people who are unstable."

Another day, another dollar ... or, in this case, the $100 bill with Donald Trump's face on it. At least, that's just one of the wild A.I. images the president just shared.

DT posted a slew of them on Truth Social Tuesday ... including a pic of himself on the $100 bill, the U.S. military shooting Iranian vehicles with missiles and lasers, and insane images of Democrats.

One shows Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Nancy Pelosi swimming in the Lincoln Memorial's Reflecting Pool ... except it's filled with sewage.

1:46 PM PT -- Mark has since amended his post ... removing the A.I. pic of a dead President Trump -- and replacing it with a picture of DT's hair blowing in the wind.

Mark wrote in the updated message ... "Accurate Edit for Clarity: He should live long enough to... be held accountable for his... crimes. Actually, I was wishing him the opposite of dead, but apologize if you found the image inappropriate."

Mark Hamill went to the Dark Side on President Donald Trump ... and now the White House is firing back with the force.

The "Star Wars" icon is catching major heat after posting an A.I.-generated image showing Trump lying lifeless in a shallow grave beneath a headstone reading "Donald J. Trump 1946-2026" ... alongside the words, "If Only."

Hamill doubled down in the caption, too ... writing that he hopes Trump lives long enough to see an "inevitable devastating loss in the midterms," be "impeached, convicted & humiliated," and remembered in history as disgraced "forevermore."

Barack Obama is making it clear he's not losing sleep over that racist A.I. video President Donald Trump posted ... but he is drawing a line when it comes to his family.

In a new interview with The New Yorker, Obama addressed the controversy sparked back in February when Trump shared an A.I.-generated clip on social media depicting the former prez and wife Michelle Obama as apes -- imagery that ignited immediate backlash.

Obama’s take? He’s not taking the bait.

Mohamed Hadid was out there hyping his daughter Gigi Hadid's red carpet look like she was museum-worthy art ... only problem? He was duped by pics that weren't even real!

Yep -- while Gigi shut it down at the Met Gala Monday, she definitely wasn’t rocking that OTT white-and-gold gown Mohamed shared on IG before quickly deleting ... but not before someone grabbed a screenshot and it made its way onto Reddit.

As you can see, he didn’t just fall for it -- he committed. Caption and all: "She looks like she came out of a frame from the museum. A classic Hadid moment." Sir ... that frame came from a robot!

Chris Brown's baby mama drama is still going strong, it seems. He and Diamond Brown appear to be trashing each other on social media in the wake of her paternity suit.

On her Instagram story Monday, Diamond re-posted a video of TikToker William Last KRM lip-syncing to "Do You Ever Get Tired" -- an A.I.-generated song from King Willonius, who also generated the infamous "BBL Drizzy" sample.

The lyrics go ... "I got a question 'cause I really need to know, do you ever get tired of being a bitch-ass n****?"

An hour later, CB shared a story of his own, writing ... "Once you're an opp, this s*** don't stop!" The text appears alongside the lyrics of Crime Mob's "Knuck If You Buck."

Evangeline Lilly's stepping up to defend the real superheroes behind the Marvel characters onscreen ... blasting parent company Disney for letting some high-profile crew go.

Here's the deal ... the House of Mouse recently laid off about 1,000 staffers amid some notable shakeups at the company -- including the exit of CEO Bob Iger -- and comic book artist Andy Park, who worked on 40+ Marvel movies, was one of them.

In a video posted to social media, Lilly says she reached out to her friend -- who helped bring her character's superhero costume to life, she says -- about the firings and a pivot toward A.I. ... and, she says Park confirmed her worst fears.

Michael Jackson's pet chimp Bubbles is still living his best life at the Center for Great Apes ... but the sanctuary's had it with the internet running wild with the A.I.-created buzz tied to the late icon's biopic "Michael."

The Wauchula, Florida-based sanctuary released a statement obtained by TMZ on Tuesday ... saying those viral pics of MJ's nephew Jaafar Jackson hanging out with Bubbles are fake -- not real, never happened. They add Jaafar's never even visited ... though the invite's technically open.

The sanctuary made it crystal clear -- they're legit, accredited, and not in the business of turning their animals into meet-and-greets. No touching, no interactions ... their chimps and orangutans stay protected within secure habitats.

Taylor Swift is making sure A.I. doesn't turn her into its next puppet ... because, according to docs obtained by TMZ, she's quietly locked down some very specific trademarks aimed at making sure any digital copycats of her voice and image are "CANCELLED!"

According to new trademark filings submitted last Friday, Taylor is seeking federal protection for two phrases tied directly to her voice: "Hey, it's Taylor Swift" and "Hey, it's Taylor." The filings fall under the rare "sound mark" category -- the same trademark lane used for recognizable audio cues ... like Netflix's "tu-dum" and NBC's iconic chimes.

Taylor's legal team appears to be on their "Vigilante S***" preparing for the growing wave of A.I.-generated songs, videos, and deepfakes that mimic celebrities without permission. By trademarking phrases tied to her voice, Taylor could have a stronger argument if someone uses A.I. to create content that sounds too much like her.

Post Malone went from White Iverson to Snow White Iverson ... traveling up past Canada to Alaska and shocking some fans at a local gas station.

The singer and rapper popped up at Esther Gas in Fairbanks, Alaska on Monday ... walking in with another guy and two security guards to buy some snacks, Bud Light, and liquor.

Jari Markkanen -- who works at the gas station -- tell us that Posty was nice enough to take a picture with him and with another customer. Malone also paid for that customer's beer. What a gent!
