Someone marked a huge '8647' into the grounds of the National Mall in Washington. The arrangement of the numbers was clearly an attempt to show 8647, though the 4 was not fully formed.

In response to this, on June 2, 2025, the Missoula City Council passed a resolution with a vote of 9–2 titled "A Resolution of the Missoula City Council Recognizing the Pride Flag as an Official Flag of the City of Missoula" which recognized the pride flag as the city's official flag.[6][1] The decision was made following a meeting in the city council chamber where a majority of public comments expressed support for the adoption of the flag.[7] Prior to this resolution, Missoula did not have an official flag.

In this case, Google's AI had falsely linked two publishers to fraud and made claims that didn't appear in any of the linked sources. The ruling could set a precedent for AI-generated content liability worldwide.
