A man suspected of using ChatGPT to generate fake news has been arrested in Gansu Province, China. He created fake news about a train accident.
This incident was the first arrest in China, sparked by an artificial intelligence (AI) investigation.
The story, which alleged the accident killed nine construction workers in the city of Gansu, said the local police department in Pingliang City had more than 15,000 clicks after it was posted on social media on April 25.
