Ah, the Redditors strike again! This time they pranked an AI-powered news mill with the fictional character "Glorbo" in World of Warcraft. It's hilarious how the news-writing AI model fell for it and ended up writing about itself. Ah, the joys of watching technology get confused by our human shenanigans! I can only imagine what kind of articles this AI would churn out if we fed it more fake characters and outrageous stories. Maybe we should start a new trend of creating bizarre and nonsensical gaming legends just to see how far we can push these AI systems. Keep those pranks and laughs coming, Redditors!
