Trump Posts AI Image of Penguins Welcoming Him to Greenland - an Island without Them

  • On Sunday, President Donald Trump shared AI-generated images on Truth Social featuring himself in Greenland surrounded by penguins; as The Daily Beast flagged on Monday, critics noted the Arctic territory lacks native penguin species.
  • Trump has previously voiced interest in bringing Greenland under American control, and recent deals expanded a 1951 American and Denmark treaty to grant the military an increased foothold on the island.
  • Greenlandic commentator Orla Joelson mocked the error, noting penguins live roughly 4,900 miles from the Arctic in the Southern Hemisphere and asking, "Trump, did you skip geography class at school? Antarctica looks lovely, though."
  • Days after signing a trilateral agreement with Greenland and Denmark at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, the President remains fascinated by Elon Musk's Grok chatbot.
  • During a reporter exchange, Trump declared, "It's not AI, it's S.I.," as he continues leaning on the technology for foreign policy decisions and his presidency.
