A US government map of Africa mislabeled every country during a state department presentation at a ⁠global conference in Brazil ⁠this week, ​causing a stir among attenders who took screenshots and posted them online.

Reuters viewed a video of the presentation given at the Aids 2026 conference in ⁠Rio de Janeiro, which shows the errant map displayed halfway during a presentation about the state department’s new health agreements.

A Reuters analysis found the image of the map included ⁠in the presentation contained an artificial intelligence watermark that signals it was made with OpenAI tools.

That sounds exactly like the competence I've grown to exoect from our average leader.

Yes, a highschool education could have caught the error, but... well... no, I don't have another point.

Can we get a Seth Rogan or Adam Sandler movie where a US leader has to retake highschool? Preferably before it has to be a documentary...
