AI Fails: The Funniest Times Artificial Intelligence Went Spectacularly Wrong

A running archive of the best AI fails, Google AI fails, and AI gone wrong moments — plus our satirical takes on each one.

For every breathless press release about AI changing the world, there is an AI fail lurking just around the corner. Google’s AI told people to put glue on pizza. A chatbot tried to break up a marriage. A self-driving car got confused by a person in a chicken costume. And those are the real stories.

At AI Bee Reel, we take these AI gone wrong moments and push them to their logical, satirical conclusion. What if the AI did not just give bad advice — what if it doubled down? What if the robot was not just confused — what if it was offended? Below is our definitive collection of funny AI fails, organized by how badly the technology screwed up.
