In a move that feels straight out of a sci-fi novel, or maybe a reality TV show, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) has filed trademarks for two shiny new artificial intelligence features on Truth Social. Yes, you read that right. "Truth Social AI" and "Truth Social AI Search" are the names the company has chosen to grace its soon-to-be AI-powered platform, promising a "reliable source of non-woke news and entertainment", as if we needed more of that.
Devin Nunes, the Trump Media Chairman and CEO, says these trademarks will turn Truth Social into the shining beacon of information that you didn’t know you were missing. Move over, Google, here comes "Truth Social AI Search"—your new home for unfiltered (and definitely not woke) news.
In a plot twist that could only happen in 2023, TMTG’s shares closed 5.5% higher on Wednesday. And guess what? That outstripped the Nasdaq index, because nothing says "we're winning" like beating an entire index of tech giants. But hold on, don't pop the champagne just yet. TMTG posted a net loss of $31.7 million for Q1 2025. Oh, and their revenue was $8.8 million. But hey, at least the stock price is going up, right? That’s all that matters in this thrilling world of business.
AI? More Like AI-What?
Now, let’s talk about AI. You know, the shiny new tool everyone’s throwing around these days. Other social media platforms have been using AI for things like real-time translation, chatbots, and personalized content. But leave it to TMTG to add their own twist, because who doesn’t need AI that promises to give you "non-woke news"?
But this isn’t the first time TMTG has filed trademarks for something "emerging." They’ve previously applied for a cryptocurrency trading and payment service, ETFs tied to the platform, and even a Trump-branded metaverse. I mean, if you’re going to go big, why not go really big?
Truth Social - 6.3 Million Users
Truth Social reportedly has 6.3 million users as of January. Sure, that’s a nice number, but it’s still just a tiny fraction compared to Facebook’s 3.1 billion monthly active users. But who’s counting? And hey, it’s not all bad news. On other social media platforms, like X (formerly Twitter), there have been... "shenanigans." Remember when Elon Musk promised to "fix" Grok because it was too "woke"? The result? Grok proudly declared itself "MechaHitler." Definitely not something you'd expect from a state-of-the-art AI, right?
In conclusion, Truth Social’s move into AI is... well, let’s say it’s ambitious. Whether it will actually become the “non-woke” powerhouse Nunes envisions, only time will tell. But hey, at least it’ll be fun to watch.
