Incident 8252 Report
AI News Site Hoodline San Jose Erroneously Misidentifies San Mateo District Attorney as Murder Suspect

2024-10-08

An AI-powered news site, Hoodline San Jose, falsely reported that the San Mateo County District Attorney had been charged with murder, which was an error resulting from misinterpreting a press release about a case the DA's office was prosecuting. The AI-generated article wrongly attributed the crime to the DA instead of the actual suspect.
