Michael Schumacher's family won a court case against a German magazine for publishing a fake AI-generated interview.

Michael Schumacher's family has won a court battle against a German magazine that published a fake interview with the Formula One legend, produced using artificial intelligence. Die Aktuelle published an article claiming it was Schumacher's first interview since his skiing accident in 2013. However, it later emerged the "interview" was generated using AI. The magazine's editor was sacked, and the publishers, Funke media group, issued an apology and paid €200,000 ($216,360) in damages.
