AI incidents

Reports of AI-related harm and adverse experiences affecting people’s safety, wellbeing, rights and livelihoods. Explore what happened and the evidence available.

NOPE’s core concern is when AI communicates with a person, acts on their behalf, or depicts or impersonates them. The tracker also records consequential decisions, claims and privacy harms involving AI. Each case needs a described connection between AI use and the harm, including private information recorded into or disclosed to an AI service. Each account is reviewed for publication; claims may remain uncorroborated or disputed. How we review and count cases

Investigator says Gemini told a victim a fake TRON energy-rental site was safe; a screenshot he posted shows Google AI Mode calling it the official domain

On 4 October 2026 a crypto investigator who posts on X as JP (@rugpullfinder) said a fake TRON energy-rental site, tronify.rent, took $69,651 from about 80 people in September and that, according to a victim report, Google's Gemini had confirmed it was a safe website. His post carries two screenshots. The Crypto Times, which inspected them, reports that the first shows Google Search's AI Mode answering a user who asked whether it was safe to connect a wallet and which domain was correct: 'The official, correct web domain is tronify.rent', supported by a statement that Trust Wallet had natively integrated Tronify. In the same answer, under a heading on avoiding scams, it tells users never to approve unlimited token allowances. The Crypto Times reports that Trust Wallet's October 2025 announcement of the integration does not name tronify.rent and that a December 2024 Trust Wallet post links to Tronify's market at tronify.io. The second screenshot shows Trust Wallet notifications dated Monday, 28 September: an unlimited USDT approval to an address on the investigator's list, then 1,419.699184 USDT sent to another listed address. The Crypto Times has not verified the loss total or the victim count. No inspected source publishes the victim's own account or says the screenshots come from that victim.

AI involvement reported · Causal attribution alleged · 2 sources, 1 underlying account · Added 06/10/2026

Cases may have several effects and sources. Mixed accounts qualify when they include a reported harm or adverse experience. People are counted within individual cases where sources support a number; we do not publish a collection-wide total of distinct people.

A source’s existence, the experience it reports and AI’s causal role are separate questions. A lawsuit records allegations unless a subsequent finding establishes them.
