A German magazine has been slammed for using artificial intelligence to generate and publish a fake interview with former F1 champion Michael Schumacher.
Mr Schumacher suffered a serious brain injury in a 2013 skiing accident and his family have kept the former driver’s condition private.
“Quite disgraceful, the editor-in-chief’s been sacked, the publisher’s apologised – it was a fake interview, it was an artificially intelligent AI interview that was generated,” The Australian’s Media Writer Sophie Elsworth said. “They ran the story and then said, ‘it sounds like it’s Michael Schumacher but it’s not’ – how ridiculous.”
