A proposed new Amazon feature constitutes a "hostile" action against the Trump Administration ... so says White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
During a briefing Tuesday morning, a reporter asked about a report about Amazon running a new line item on check-outs that would tell people how much more they're paying because of President Donald Trump's tariffs.
Leavitt -- standing beside Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent -- called the move a "hostile and political act" ... before asking why Amazon didn't do the same to highlight inflation during former President Joe Biden's term.

Billy Bush thinks artificial intelligence is severely lacking the latter word in its name ... calling the tech "crap" after hearing it didn't even rank him as a top 10 member of the Bush family.
We caught up with the popular television host recently ... and, we asked him where he thinks he ranks on the list we generated using A.I., putting members of his famous fam in order from most to least successful.
Billy ain't crazy ... not putting himself in the top spot ahead of his uncle, former President George H.W. Bush, or his cousin, former President George W. Bush -- instead numbering himself in a very humble 11th place.
Sam Neill is checking out over self check-outs -- making it loud and clear he will not be scanning a single item himself, ever.
The "Jurassic Park" star knows his take might ruffle some feathers, but says in an IG vid he doesn't give AF about sounding old-school -- he just wants real humans to help him out ... and he also wants to protect their employment.
Sam breaks it down like this -- using self check-outs feels like robbing someone of a job, especially with the fear that robots will soon take over the world.
Blue Origin sent a group of women to the final frontier ... and TMZ streamed it live as Gayle King, Katy Perryand Lauren Sánchez blasted off into space and returned to Earth Monday morning.
Blue Origin
The girl gang includes NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
At 9:30 AM ET sharp, the ramp and scaffolding detached from Jeff Bezos' rocket the New Shepard Van Horn, in West Texas. A minute later, the rocket launched successfully. At 9:38 AM, after reaching its apogee, the rocket began its descent back down. By 9:39 AM, the rocket executed a "picture perfect landing" back on Earth, directly on the spot from where it launched. Then the capsule, still airborne, deployed its parachutes as it floated down. At 9:41 AM, the capsule landed in the dirt.
Waymo driverless cars cars might not be sentient yet ... but, at least one tried to pick up a bite to eat Monday night -- and ended up causing a massive traffic jam at Chick-fil-A.

Photos show the car has its lights on, but no one's home -- quite literally, in this case. Eyewitnesses told KTLA-TV workers crowded around the vehicle around 9:30 PM as it attempted to back up, before screeching to a halt again ... probably realizing it didn't have the money for a meal.
Has A.I. entered the White House? There's an interesting theory circulating social media claiming President Trump's new sweeping reciprocal tariffs -- slapping a minimum 10% tariff on nearly 100 countries -- were formulated with the help of artificial intelligence.
The theory comes after several X users claimed they duplicated the same tariff plan via OpenAI’s ChatGPT and similar programs.
For background, the White House announced it calculated the size of the trade deficit between the U.S. and a given country and divided that by how much America imports from the chosen country. That number was then divided in half, reaching the new tariff rate.
Crypto trader Jordan "Cobie" Fish shared a screenshot asking ChatGPT to "calculate the tariffs that should be imposed on other countries so that the US is on even playing fields when it comes to trade deficit" with a baseline of 10% ... and it answered with a noticeably similar plan to what the White House used.
ChatGPT warned Cobie the plan fails to take into account the "intricate dynamics of international trade -- such as elasticities, retaliatory measures, and supply chain nuances."
Plus, Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok created a similar plan when instructed with the same prompt. It also cautioned one must "consider production costs, subsidies, and labor standards abroad" when hoping to achieve an "even playing field."
Furthermore, Grok warned such a formula could cause "retaliation or higher costs for US consumers."
This might be the first large-scale application of AI technology to geopolitics.. 4o, o3 high, Gemini 2.5 pro, Claude 3.7, Grok all give the same answer to the question on how to impose tariffs easily. pic.twitter.com/r1GGubcz8c
Other X users have noticed similar formulas generated via 4o, o3 high, Gemini 2.5 pro, and Claude 3.7.
Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.
Economist James Surowiecki says he was also able to reverse-engineer the "fake tariff rates" ... calling the simplicity of it all "extraordinary nonsense."
When Trump announced his new tariffs Thursday, he said they were necessary to boost domestic manufacturing, create revenue for the U.S. and restore fairness to global trade.
Of course ... no one knows if the White House turned to A.I. to get its homework done -- but it's certainly a provocative theory.
Anyone who shared their DNA with 23andMe needs to delete their data from the genetic information service before the company is sold to the highest bidder ... so says a tech columnist sounding the alarm on future consequences.

Video of two A.I. chatbots recognizing each other, then switching to a computer language has human viewers online scratching their heads ... as no one else can possibly decipher what they're saying!
It's something approaching a dystopian technological nightmare -- two chatbot assistants realize they’re both A.I., and take their conversation to a more "efficient" mode to communicate. What we hear next is disconcerting.
Here’s the deal -- a viral video on social media has garnered millions of views, showing a smartphone A.I. agent introducing itself to book a hotel. The hotel's A.I. agent on a laptop computer responds, identifying itself, and cheerfully offers to take the conversation to another language -- Gibberlink Mode, a communication system developed to enhance artificial-intelligence interactions.
Apple's iPhone voice-to-text feature is in hot water ... with users doing a double-take after noticing it sometimes swaps out the word "racist" for "Trump."

Watch the clip ... Vivian mouths along to audio from the TV show "Phineas and Ferb" -- basically saying that it's strange she's now learned about two new siblings from Reddit instead of her own family.
