We live in an amazing time—a Pakistani website specializing in publishing fake news created by AI to earn advertising revenue published an announcement of a non-existent Halloween parade in Dublin. The article was picked up by search algorithms and rose in Google's results. Journalists began spreading the news in their publications without even bothering to verify it. As a result, thousands of people came to the square, ready to participate in a parade that didn't exist. #FakeNews #AI #Media #Dublin #Halloween #Misinformation
