The Trump administration has integrated a new fraud-reporting tool into the federal government's official chatbot. Users can reportedly flag suspected fraud directly through the chatbot interface rather than through separate channels.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.

It may reflect a broader push by the administration to use AI systems for government functions beyond customer service.
