Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday actually explained to a group of labor and civil rights leaders — you know, adults — that AI is "kind of a fancy thing," has "two letters," and "means artificial intelligence."

Harris' address during a roundtable at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington, D.C., ultimately became her "latest word salad gaffe," Fox News reported.

In a video of her address, Harris began by saying, "I think the first part of this issue that should be articulated is AI is kind of a fancy thing. First of all, it's two letters. It means artificial intelligence, but ultimately what it is, is it's about machine learning."

Phew! Good thing she cleared that up.

It was far from the first time Harris spoke to grown-ups as if they were schoolchildren. Readers of TheBlaze may recall a few months back when Harris gave a postgame locker room speech to basketball players from her alma mater, Howard University, after a March Madness loss that sounded like a pep talk for grade-schoolers:

Continuing with her AI address — remember, kids, those two letters stand for "artificial intelligence" — Harris began whipping up another one of her famous word salads: "And so, the machine is taught. And part of the issue here is what information is going into the machine that will then determine — and we can predict then, if we think about what information is going in, what then will be produced in terms of decisions and opinions that may be made through that process."

Unfortunately, Harris — who was tasked a few months back to lead an effort to "promote responsible AI innovation" — continued in another part of the clip with this:

So, to reduce it down to its most simple point, this is part of the issue that we have here is thinking about what is going into a decision, and then whether that decision is actually legitimate and reflective of the needs and the life experiences of all the people. And therefore a big part of what we will also discuss then is the transparency in terms of the processes through which AI actually is having an impact on decisions: Do we understand the technology? Do we know what is going into the decisions that are being made? So, this is a very multifaceted issue and topic, and we also know that this is technology that is rapidly developing, and so part of the common purpose that we have is a sense of urgency that we get in front of this issue in terms of understanding the implications, so that we can work as a community of folks — private sector, public sector, nonprofits, government — to do what is in the best interests of the health and safety and well being of the people of our country. And ultimately, that's how I think about this.

As you might guess, there was plenty of mockery for Harris' address. Here are a few examples:
