That\u2019s about as good as it comes up here,\u201d the president said and gestured to his head. \u201cThe brain power. The greatest power of them all.

Gotta milk it every day or else they explode from the carbonation.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>In another clip, Trump compared the AI industry to a baby.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to grow that baby and let that baby thrive,\u201d Trump said. \u201cWe can\u2019t stop it.
