> Donald Trump shared an AI-generated map on Monday that appeared to show the United States absorbing Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Iceland, Cuba and parts of the Caribbean into a giant “United States of America”. The context-free post prompted diplomatic backlash, with Iceland summoning the US ambassador, Mexico reiterating its sovereignty and Denmark objecting over Greenland. It also drew widespread online ridicule and questions about Trump’s fitness for office.
