FANS of Steve Harvey are fuming after an apparent artificial intelligence-generated article claimed the beloved Family Feud host died.
Dozens of fanatics of the renowned entertainer, 67, took to social media with a screenshot of a push notification they received from the NewsBreak App announcing Harvey’s death.
Newsbreak is a popular app that provides smartphone users with the latest news and foreign affairs from different news publications.
In this case, Harvey’s fake death announcement came from the online website Trend Cast News.
The byline of the article read “Future Tech Prediction.”
“I woke up to this Steve Harvey passed ‘news’ and just reading the headline, I knew it was bs but bro,” one person wrote and shared a screengrab of the push notification.
“This NewsBreak app just posts/shares anything. I have a love hate relationship with this app.
“They want to be credible but allow whatever.”
A second fumed, “Gmorn’n did anyone else wake up to Steve Harvey passed away news and it was a spam or virus link.”
“Nearly had a stroke when I got news that Steve Harvey passed away,” another said.
Harvey has not responded to the death rumors but has been active on X, sharing his usual motivational content with his 6.1 million followers.
