NOPE · AI and people

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

These figures describe the cases collected by NOPE. Coverage varies with discovery, reporting and available evidence. They do not estimate how often AI-related harm occurs.

Response counts currently use each case’s principal recorded outcome. Further proceedings may be described in its account.

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.

22 Oct 2026Event location unknownTikTok LIVE age check (reported)

Idol, 28, says TikTok LIVE age check judged her under 18 and cut off her livestream

A 28-year-old member of an idol group said that on 22 October 2026 TikTok ended her live stream, which was also promoting her birthday event two days later, because it judged her to be under 18, the minimum age for live streaming. In an emergency video posted the same day she said the stated reason was that people under 18 cannot stream after 10 pm and that she could not continue. Real Sound reports that the AI judged her to be under 18 and the stream was abruptly cut off; on X she wrote 'TikTok LIVE, I won't forgive you (28, female)' and later called herself a 28-year-old idol judged a minor by AI. Fans treated the episode as a joke and it drew wide attention. TikTok's comment and whether her appeal succeeded are not reported.

California patient says urgent-care discharge papers were printed ChatGPT answers that other doctors told her were unsafe for her condition (first-person)

In a TikTok video posted on 28 October 2026, a woman described as living in California says the discharge paperwork and at-home treatment plan she received after a visit for care consisted of printed ChatGPT responses, which, according to a 30 October report by The Nerd Stash, included what appeared to be earlier chat prompts with labels such as "Aftercare Instruction Request". In a comment she identified the facility, which the report names only as allegedly an urgent-care clinic. She describes herself as medically complex, with a rare genetic disorder. In her caption she writes that, had she followed the instructions blindly, they would likely have led to bowel perforation given her history, citing other doctors she asked. She did not follow them. The clinic's account, the clinician involved and the date of the visit are not known.

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.
