KPMG issued a report citing all the transformational ways GenAI has transformed industry, it’s been widely cited.
One minor problem: it turns they used AI to write the report, and it made up all of the evidence.
KPMG have now withdrawn the report in full.

Our very own @mttaggart is quoted in this article. I expect we are going to see a LOT more of this sort of thing involving other distros. Good thing we have AI SOCs to solve this, right?
Worth noting that report was out for 9 months before anybody actually challenged it.
Similar with the 80% of ransomware groups use GenAI report from MIT (which I ended up getting removed).. is anybody actually bothering to check the GenAI thing is real?
KPMG and EY aren't, they aren't even reading their own reports as they're busy cashing the cheque like MIT.
