During the meeting in Alaska, US President Donald Trump handed his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin a letter calling for peace in Ukraine. The letter was allegedly written by his wife, Melania Trump. However, rumors that the writing was generated by artificial intelligence (AI) are circulating…
A letter made public

A copy of the letter was first obtained by Fox News Digital. It was then posted on social networks by supporters of the American president, including Attorney General Pam Bondi.
A summit without concrete progress

The president then relayed it on Truth Social, after posting several messages criticizing the reaction of the media and the democrats to the summit in Alaska, at the end of which Trump and Putin failed to unveil any solutions to end the deadly three-and-a-half-year conflict.
Ukraine is never mentioned

In the letter in question, Ukraine is never mentioned. Instead, Donald Trump’s wife asks the Kremlin leader to put the spotlight on child protection.
Clichéd expressions

However, since it was posted online, several Internet users have suspected that the letter was written with AI, not least because of the vague identity of the children Melania mentions and her use of clichéd expressions.
The reaction of Democratic strategist Keith Edwards

The letter “says absolutely nothing” and “may have been written by an AI”, reacted Democratic strategist Keith Edwards on X.
What does Grok think?

One Internet user even asked Grok, X’s chatbot, for its opinion on the matter: the letter was “probably 85% written by an AI, with slight human modifications,” replied the conversational agent.
...and ChatGPT?

Another X user asked ChatGPT the same question: Unsurprisingly, it claimed that this was the case and that “no less than 90-100% had been written by an AI,” it said.
No comment from the White House

There is no concrete evidence that Melania Trump generated her text using AI. The White House has not responded to the media for comment on this controversy.
Volodymyr Zelensky thanks Melania Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybih expressed their gratitude to the First Lady for her “sincere care and efforts to bring back forcibly deported Ukrainian children”.
Abduction of Ukrainian children

Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine led Russia to take Ukrainian children from their homeland to be raised as Russians. Following an Associated Press report on the abduction of Ukrainian children in 2022, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin for war crimes. It accuses him of being personally responsible for these abductions.
