In an exclusive statement to the New York Post, first lady Melania Trump has revealed her next official project: leading the Presidential Artificial Intelligence Challenge to inspire children and teachers to embrace AI technology and help accelerate innovation in the field.

She hopes to carve out a new role as the First Lady of Technology, combining her passion for children’s well-being with her tech-forward vision, as demonstrated by her advocacy for the “Take It Down Act,” which combats AI-generated deepfakes, and her work on an AI-powered audiobook version of her best-selling memoir “Melania.”

“Creating my AI Audiobook opened my eyes to the countless opportunities and risks this new technology brings to American society,” the first lady told The Post.

For Mrs. Trump, 55, the AI Challenge is a natural extension of her commitment to education and innovation in a digital age, aligning with her first term “Be Best” priorities of online safety and youth empowerment.
