Is Satire Dangerous in the AI-Age?

There have been times when satire has been mistaken for reality. A list of Onion stories that were mistaken for reality (or was it a mistake?) is here. When I say mistaken for reality I mean that a large set of people were fooled.

My own Ramsey-History-Hoax (blog here, latest version of the paper here) has fooled some people; however the number of people is small since the number of people who know the underlying math is small. 

In my last blog (see here) I said that the Pope Leo XIV majored in math (that is true) and that his undergrad thesis was on 

Rado's Theorem for Non-Linear Equations (this is false). 

 Later in the post I said that his ugrad thesis was not on that topic, but instead was on 

 The Canonical Polynomial Hales-Jewett Theorem (this is also false).

I thought the reader would know that it was false, but one comment inquired about it so I left a comment admitting it was false.

This is all very minor: Not that many people read this blog and very few non-math people would care about what the topic of the  Pope's undergraduate thesis.

The last part of the last sentence is false. Its the POPE! People Do care about his background. 

But surely my blog post isn't so well read so as to make the fictional  title of his thesis a hoax that fools a lot of people. 

Even so, I left a comment wondering if LLM's might learn the incorrect title of the Pope's ugrad thesis. 

A reader named E posted the following:

 It might be too late. I did this search this evening:

E: Did Pope Leo XIV study Ramsey Theory?

Gemini: Pope Leo XIV, whose given name is Robert Francis Prevost,
earned a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics from Villanova
University in 1977. His undergraduate thesis focused on Rado's Theorem
for Nonlinear Equations.

0) This may not be to bad- one would have to ask about The Pope and Ramsey Theory to get that answer. But in the future this answer might pop up on the question`What did the Pope Study as an Undergraduate' or similar questions.

1) Might future satires or April Fool's Day jokes be mistaken for reality in the future by AI and hence reach a much larger audience than this blog does.

2) If so, should we be careful with what we post (not sure how to do that).

3) What about people who have a much larger following then complexityblog  (yes, there are such people)?

4) In the past one had to be a celebrity or similar to change peoples perception of reality (see Stephen Colbert and Wikipedia here). Now a complexity blogger may be able to change people's perception of reality. Hence I ask
