Early glimpse of the dangers of AI: Fake image showing an explosion at the Pentagon goes viral on Twitter

We live in a world of lies and we couldn't believe anything we heard and now we can't believe anything we see either!

"A suspected AI-generated image claiming to show an explosion near the Pentagon went viral on Twitter Monday, sending markets crashing. Dozens of verified accounts - including national news organizations - reshared what shows black smoke billowing up from the ground next to a white building. The image appears so realistic that people became frantic as it circulated the platform around 10 am ET, which caused the S&P 500 to drop 10 points in five minutes as the image went viral."
