Melania Trump reportedly had a striking reaction to a humanoid robot during a White House summit — and it didn’t go unnoticed.
Right now, the Fostering the Future Together Global Coalition Summit is underway — a two-day event bringing together dignitaries from 45 countries and representatives from 28 tech companies to discuss how best to empower children through education and emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence.
During the second day of the summit, Melania was seen speaking with Brigitte Macron, wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, when the unusual moment occurred.
A lip reader later offered insight into their exchange.
According to expert Nicola Hickling, who spoke to the Daily Express, Melania greeted Macron with, “Hello, how are you?” before the conversation turned to the robot, which had introduced itself as “figure three” to the audience.
Macron reportedly remarked, “The eyes are a bit mad.”
Melania then responded, “It’s evil, wow, that’s a different class, isn’t it?” before turning her attention back to the crowd and beginning her speech: “Good morning, and welcome to the White House.”
The humanoid robot had earlier addressed delegates at the summit.
In her remarks, Melania emphasized collaboration and innovation, telling attendees,
“As people, we dream. As leaders, we progress. As nations, we will build.” She added, “Beginning today, let’s accelerate our new global alliance, this bond, to positively impact the progress of our children.”
She encouraged global leaders and organizations to work together through research, partnerships, and regional networks to better prepare young people for a rapidly changing world.
“This room is filled with extraordinary human capital,” she said, urging participants to “harness it” to empower children and strengthen economies.
The White House described the initiative as a global effort to improve children’s futures through education and technology — marking the first time a U.S. first lady has hosted representatives from dozens of nations in a single day.
