The tragic Air India flight AI171 crash was the first hull loss of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, marking several historical firsts for the airline.
The use of AI to discuss the crash has raised concerns, with both experts and amateur commentators utilizing AI tools to create and share videos, images, and fake investigation reports.
Misinformation spread through AI-generated content poses a threat to Indian aviation, potentially impacting the economy and nation if not debunked promptly by reliable sources.
While the government has been quick to debunk fake reports, the prevalence of such misinformation highlights the importance of skepticism, especially in the AI-era where content generated by humans can be wrongly credited to AI.
