Reminds me of politicians and public figures saying they got "hacked" after doing/posting something stupid and getting backlash for it. I guess "AI did it" is the new iteration on that.
And kids. I recently happened to see a pic on a kid's phone of him holding 5 vapes and a tin of snus, when challenged on it he said it was an AI-generated fake.
At this rate politicians will be able to say “AI hacked me” soon
I think of it as a new version of "my brain made me do it"

Appears to have replaced "fake news" as the go-to response
