This is notable because it was not created by training artificial intelligence (AI) on Trump’s voice, but by carefully editing his speeches one by one. In this video, Trump clearly pronounces "Apartment Apartment" and covers all parts originally sung by Ros? and Bruno Mars. The video sparked interest on social networking services (SNS), garnering 330,000 views.
In the video comments, international netizens responded with remarks such as "It’s so perfect that I added it to my playlist," "Please make other K-pop covers of Trump," and "APT stands for 'American President Trump.'"
