I’m sure you’ve noticed by now, but just to be clear, Steve Harvey is famous. The ever-popular Family Feud host/comedian/author/etc. has been known and beloved for everything from his colorful fashion sense to his humorous takes on love and life, and his reactions when shocked and speechless to (of course) his signature mustache . So, when word got around a couple of days ago that the celebrity Ohio native had died, many were saddened. Luckily, that news wasn’t actually true and we know the wild story behind the death hoax and how A.I. sparked it. How Did A.I. Lead To The Steve Harvey Death Hoax? Unfortunately, it seems that one of the things that come with being famous is having people speculate and/or prematurely report about the death of said celeb, and this has recently happened to one of the best game show hosts , Steve Harvey (who, yes, is still alive). It was late on December 17 when a report headlined “Steve Harvey Passed Away Today: Remembering The Legacy Of A Comedy Legend” appeared on Trend Cast News (via The Wrap ) and was then picked up by news aggregator Newsbreak. As you can imagine, the bogus report spread quickly, with the former Miss Universe pageant host ’s name trending on Google and fans taking to X to share thoughts. But, it seems that lots of people caught on almost as fast to the truth that Harvey was actually still with us: “Gmorn'n did anyone else wake up to Steve Harvey passed away news and it was a Spam or virus link” “Chill out Steve Harvey did not die... Why they doin him like that?” “They got me fucked up thinking Steve Harvey died today” It turns out that the post was created by Artificial Intelligence, and, according to Reuters , Newsbreak has been caught posting completely false information and making erroneous (and potentially illegal) changes to the stories it takes from other sites, and done so at least 40 other times since 2021. We’ve seen many times over the past several years just how easy it is for fake news to pick up steam and end up being reported as fact. While, sure, the occasional A.I.-generated image of Harvey running from monsters in the woods and fronting a hardcore rock band can be hilarious, when the technology is used in actual attempts to convince us that things like Disney World being flooded by Hurricane Milton happened or to fake the likeness of actors and others in a realistic way, it becomes dangerous very fast. For Steve Harvey’s part, he’s spent most of this week on his social media as usual, and while he hasn’t made any official comment about the false report of his death, it may be because there have been several other false reports about Harvey dying in the past year or so, and he’s just already over it.

When Willy Adames hit a three-run home run on his 29th birthday, Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy got real after the game. “He’s going to get paid a lot of money,” Murphy said. The obvious is now a reality. Adames agreed to a 7-year, $182 million deal with the San Francisco Giants on Saturday, according to a league source. The handsome payday is fitting for Adames, who entered this winter as the clear-cut top shortstop in free agency. Adames was worth 4.8 fWAR last season after setting career highs in home runs (32) and stolen bases (21). Adames was a leader who earned respect for his clutch performances and has quietly emerged as one of the game’s top players over the past three seasons. Since 2022, Adames ranks 29th among all MLB players and sixth among shortstops with 12.6 fWAR. Source confirms: Willy Adames to Giants, seven years, $182M, pending physical. Biggest contract in Giants history, surpassing Posey’s $167M deal. — Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) December 7, 2024 Originally signed by the Tigers as an international amateur, Adames was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays as part of the deal that sent David Price to Detroit. Adames spent parts of four seasons with the Rays before his trade to Milwaukee in May of 2021. Although he can be prone to whiffs and strikeouts (his 29.5 percent whiff rate last season ranked in the 21st percentile among MLB players), Adames has solidified himself as one of the game’s top offensive producers at shortstop. If there is a concern going forward, it may revolve around his defense. Advertisement Considered a plus defender in the past, Adames’ defensive metrics tumbled mightily this past season. He was worth -16 defensive runs saved and 0 outs above average in 2024. His 20 errors were the fourth most among all players, and some evaluators believe Adames may eventually be better suited moving to third base. Nonetheless, the Giants just acquired an impact infielder still in his prime years. After finishing 10th in National League MVP voting during his contract season, Adames now has a chance to emerge as an even bigger star.
