Michael Schumacher's family have confirmed their plans to take legal action against the German magazine which plastered a fake 'interview' with the Formula One legend all over its front page.
Die Aktuelle claimed on the cover of its April 15th edition to have secured "the first interview" with Schumacher since his horror skiing accident almost a decade ago. But it quickly became clear that something was not quite right about it.
The magazine claimed to have secured a chat which they said included "no meagre, nebulous half-sentences from friends. But answers from him! By Michael Schumacher, 54." However, it quickly became clear that the article had been generated by an AI chatbot.
