Reminds me of politicians and public figures saying they got "hacked" after doing/posting something stupid and getting backlash for it. I guess "AI did it" is the new iteration on that.

  "The dog ate my homework" Just blame the next thing down the chain that can't defend itself, so you don't have to take responsibility.

    Crazy but my dog once ate half my homework.

      Did you submit the other half? Which definitely would prove "dog ate my homework"

      My mother was a teacher, and she once had to go to school and tell her students our dog ate their homework.

  The issue is fake news is real and has somehow been co-opted by the perpetrators to attack any claim/media group that is critical of them or their actions. If you fact check these people they just scream “fake news” until their followers chant it with them. Huh I guess it is comparable to “it was AI” lol

    This comment has gone up and down like nothing I’ve ever commented before. Legitimately fascinating to watch. It’s gone from -1 back to 1 several times today.

And kids. I recently happened to see a pic on a kid's phone of him holding 5 vapes and a tin of snus, when challenged on it he said it was an AI-generated fake.

My favorite was the congresscritter who held a press conference complaining that Google was returning obscene links to ordinary queries. He didn't understand that Google was remembering his own past searches, and self-owned on camera. Turns out his wife and kids were more performative than interest-based.
