      Pretty much anywhere. Be nice if the AI could have obtained them a permit, in some jurisdictions, but failing that concern, I think I would enjoy finding out I was “duped” alongside thousands of others who share an interest of mine like so.

    I would say this is an overall positive: The more people are aware of how easy it is to create fake this with AI the better, I would say. That would make people less likely to fall for it in the future, especially for something with greater consequences than just a parade that didn’t exist.

    Macnas is a performing arts group that had staged Halloween parades in Dublin since 2013. The COVID-19 pandemic stopped those parades until last year, but the group had not scheduled one in 2024.

    That seems like a pretty f-ing important detail. The rest of the article and headline makes it look like a bunch of people showed up because of some random parade announcement, instead of people who were expecting an annual event and got some details from the wrong source.
