Not only that but someone, having spotted this reoccurring hallucination, had turned that made-up dependency into a real one, which was subsequently downloaded and installed thousands of times by developers as a result of the AI's bad advice, we've learned.

Google has confirmed a new security scheme which, it says, will help “secure, empower and advance our collective digital future” using AI.

The cat is out of the bag:
Generative AI systems like DALL-E and ChatGPT have been trained on copyrighted materials;
OpenAI, despite its name, has not been transparent about what it has been trained on.
Generative AI systems are fully capable of producing materials that infringe on copyright.
They do not inform users when they do so.
They do not provide any information about the provenance of any of the images they produce.
Users may not know when they produce any given image whether they are infringing.

When asked about electoral candidates, it listed numerous GOP candidates who have already pulled out of the race.
