Publicing Interviews On Artificial Intelligence Results, Die Aktuelle Magazine Will Be Sued By Michael Schumacher's Family

JAKARTA Michael Schumacher's family will take legal action against German weekly magazine Die Aktuelle for publishing false interviews with the former F1 rider.

Interestingly, the interview used artificial intelligence (AI). A spokesman for the Schumacher family has pointed to the published report.

Die Aktuelle's latest edition contains the front cover with a smiley image of Schumacher and followed by the title Michael Schumacher, the first interview and the tagline "It sounds very real".

My life has really changed since [the accident]. It was a terrible time for my wife, my children and the whole family," read the false excerpt of the AI work interview, quoted by The Guardian.

The former Ferrari's great racer has never been seen publicly since he suffered a serious brain injury from a ski accident during a family vacation in the Alps, France, in December 2013.

"I was seriously injured so I lay down for months in a coma, because if I didn't, my body wouldn't be able to handle it all," continued the quote.

After the accident, the Schumacher family maintained the driver's privacy meeting. There is only limited access to those closest to him and little information is provided about his condition.

We live together at home. We do therapy. We do everything we can to make Michael better and make sure he feels comfortable, and to make him feel our family, our bond," said Corinna Schumacher in the 2021 Netflix documentary.

We try to move on as a family, in a way that Michael likes and is still doing. And we move on with our lives. "

"Privacy is privacy, as he has always said. It is very important to me that he can continue to enjoy his personal life as much as possible. Michael has always protected us, and now we are protecting Michael," added Corinna.

Schumacher's son, Mick, is currently a Mercedes reserve racer in Formula One after losing his seat at Haas at the end of last season.
