28 Hilarious AI Fails That Prove We’re Safe From Robot Overlords (For Now)

Considering how every company on Earth seems desperate to slap "AI" on their products these days, you'd think artificial intelligence was ready to ship, dominate, and maybe even replace us all. But as it turns out, AI still has a long way to go before it becomes the flawless sci-fi creation we've been imagining.

Sure, AI is useful in some cases, but it's far from perfect—and when it fails, it fails spectacularly. Recommending gasoline as a "spicy" addition to pasta sauce? Check. Misinterpreting D-Day by generating troops running enthusiastically into the ocean instead of toward the beach? Oh yes. Suggesting that pregnant women smoke 2-3 cigarettes a day for "relaxation"? You bet.

These 28 examples of AI blunders highlight just how far we are from the robot takeover. While companies race to shove AI into everything from toasters to toothbrushes, these hilarious fails serve as a reminder that artificial intelligence is, for now, a glitchy work-in-progress—and that's something we can all laugh about.
