Leavitt's farewell post gets 'Made with AI' label on X
A woman named Karoline Leavitt had a very important job, talking to reporters for the President of the United States at the White House.
She wrote a long goodbye message on a social media app called X because she wanted to spend more time with her baby.
The app put a label on her post saying 'Made with AI,' which means a computer may have helped write it.
Some people were confused and thought it was funny that a spokesperson would use a computer to write a personal message.
The label later disappeared, and the White House did not say anything about it.
She said her job was one of the most demanding in the world and she could not be a mom and do that job at the same time.
The President said he understood and respected her decision.
Some people were not nice and said not every mom can stay home with her kids.
Karoline made history by becoming the youngest person to ever have that job.
She and her husband recently welcomed their second baby, a girl.
Karoline Leavitt announced her departure as White House Press Secretary in an emotional post on X that she described as 'bittersweet'.
The platform attached a 'Made with AI' label to the post, raising doubt about her sentiments, though the label later disappeared.
Leavitt said the role was 'one of the most demanding jobs' in the world and she could not continue being a mother while performing it.
President Donald Trump said he 'totally understands and respects' her decision to leave.
Critics noted most mothers do not get the privilege of staying home because families need two incomes, with one user recalling Leavitt's earlier criticism of Gen Z as lazy.
