A man in Singapore is facing serious legal consequences after allegedly using Google's Gemini AI to fabricate an image of a crocodile at Pandan Reservoir. The 30-year-old reportedly shared the image with a coworker, but it eventually came to the attention of authorities. As a result, water-based activities at the reservoir were halted for two days while rescue teams and wildlife officials conducted an extensive search for a crocodile that never existed. Notably, PUB stated that multiple AI-detection tools were initially unable to confirm the image was fabricated. Once it was verified as AI-generated, the matter was handed over to police. The man now faces two charges: up to three years imprisonment for disseminating false information, and up to seven years for disturbing public order—amounting to a potential maximum of ten years behind bars. No final ruling has yet been made.
