Not related to news articles, but I've noticed the rise of "AI influencers" that are ripping off people.
Their operation goes like this:
1) Steal/scrape content from human influencers (photos, videos)
2) Generated a face using some generative model, and deep fake it onto the data scraped from (1).
3) Automate the process with text and engagement, using some GPT model to generate the description / dialogue / etc.
4) Deploy on IG/TikTok/Onlyfans/etc.
5) Purchase followers.
Wait or pay for some "This influencer is not real!" article, which is then again re-generated and spread further by some AI news generator.
Real people see the content on their social media feed, and contribute to "organic growth". Clueless people start paying for the "exclusive" OF content and what not.
EDIT: Also, I've seen an explosion in AI/ML generated celebrity thirst traps on social media. Not outright porn, but FB/IG "friendly" photos - usually in the setting of some happening (academy awards, met gala, and general red carpet stuff). Thousands of comments and likes.
