ChatGPT

Clearly Mashable is not real and genuine journalism, and this Cecily Mauran person who wrote the article is either trash at their job, or it's a click bait website.

There's a list of names (taken from a social media post) at the bottom of the article. Search the first one Brain Hood, you find out he's an Australian Mayor who sued ChatGPT because it claimed he'd taken bribes, when he hadn't. He sued them for spreading misinformation, so they shut the chat down when he's mentioned because he's sued them.

I have little doubt this explains all the names.

People are worried AI will spread misinformation like it's something new, when we have people like Cecily Mauran and Mashables already doing it.
