Description: In November 2025, Pakistan’s major English-language newspaper Dawn accidentally published an AI-generated prompt inside one of its business news articles. The story was about automobile sales, but at the bottom of the report, a line appeared that clearly looked like a message meant for an AI tool rather than something intended for readers. It read like a suggestion from an AI assistant offering to create a more polished, front-page version of the article. The mistake quickly spread across social media. Many people pointed out that a well-respected newspaper had allowed an internal AI instruction to slip into print. Readers questioned how such an obvious error made it past editors, especially at a publication known for its strict editorial standards. After the backlash, Dawn added an explanation on its website. The editors said that the piece had been edited using AI, which violated their own rules about how AI tools should be used. They admitted that the leftover AI text was an oversight and said they had removed it from the online version. They also announced that they were looking into how the mistake happened. The incident sparked a wider conversation about the role of AI in journalism. People discussed whether news organizations should be using AI for writing or editing, and if so, how transparent they should be about it. The error became an example of how even established newspapers can run into problems when adopting new technologies without careful supervision.
