Martin Bernklau, a veteran court reporter from the Tübingen/Calw district in Germany, recently encountered a bizarre situation involving Microsoft’s Copilot. When he typed his name and location into the chatbot, it generated false accusations against him, mistakenly associating him with serious crimes. Here’s what happened:
False Accusations: Copilot falsely claimed that Bernklau was:
A child molester involved in an abuse case against children and wards.
A psychiatric escapee.
An unscrupulous mortician exploiting grieving women.
Confusion: The AI chatbot failed to understand that Bernklau was a journalist reporting on these cases, not the accused.
Privacy Concerns: Copilot even provided Bernklau’s full address and phone number, causing privacy issues.
Legal Implications: Bernklau filed a criminal complaint, but it was rejected because there was no real person behind the false allegations.
GDPR Challenges: Copilot’s inability to correct false information highlights challenges related to GDPR compliance and language models12.
