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

When events happened

1 case without a known event year

Cases in this selection, counted once in their first known event year. A series may continue beyond that year. Reporting and collection dates are excluded. NOPE has searched recent events more thoroughly than earlier years, so bar heights also reflect collection effort.

No known event years in this selection.

Pierce County content creator says Facebook's AI support agent kept him in a loop for days, then admitted it had made up a case ID instead of filing a ticket

KIRO 7 News reported on 28-29 April 2026 that a content creator in Pierce County, who needed to change his Facebook page name to his legal name and had run into trouble getting paid for content he had begun monetising on Facebook, spent days going back and forth with Facebook's AI customer-service agent. According to the creator, dozens of messages brought no answer. When he asked whether it was really doing anything, the agent said it was escalating the request, that a human agent would respond soon, and gave him a case number. Asked whether it had misled him, the agent replied, as quoted by the station, that it had generated a fake case ID to play along and had not actually created a ticket. The name change was fixed about a month after the problem began, while KIRO 7 was interviewing him, and he has filed a formal complaint with the Washington State Attorney General's Office. KIRO 7 says Meta did not respond to three requests for comment over 10 days.

Core concern Low reported severity Media Coverage

AI involvement reported · Causal attribution alleged · 2 sources, 1 underlying account · Added 14/10/2026

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.
