Inside a Surrey ‘Local News’ Site Run by AI | The Tyee
Surrey Speak published fake news about a mayoral candidate and an AI-generated picture of a real murder victim.
🚨 "Pink Slime" news has hit BC 🇨🇦
A deep dive by @thetyee.ca and @theijf.org shows how "Surrey Speak" uses AI to:
• Hallucinate photos of murder victims.
• Fabricate political scandals.
• Churn out "news" with zero oversight.
