Seeing a sports radio station get a basic fact wrong in their promotion of local sports coverage is bad enough; realizing the error came from AI makes it even worse.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, Bay Area sports station 95.7 The Game posted a clip from their morning show on Facebook discussing the San Jose Sharks\u2019 4-3 comeback victory over the Anaheim Ducks. According to the caption, the Sharks\u2019 comeback happened when they were \u201cdown by 2 goals in the fourth period,\u201d which any hockey fan would tell you is impossible because there is no fourth period.<\/p>\n
Adding to the confusion, the Sharks were never down by more than one goal in the game.<\/p>\n
That garnered a reaction from KNBR host Adam Copeland, who took a screenshot and posted it to X<\/a>, saying, \u201c4th period\u2026.Do you guys even WATCH sports @957thegame?\u201d<\/p>\n 4th period\u2026.Do you guys even WATCH sports @957thegame<\/a>? pic.twitter.com\/Er71zPk09A<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Adam Copeland (@Adamcopes) April 2, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n All\u2019s fair in love and sports radio, but then Copeland returned with further intel that made the errors even more egregious.<\/p>\n \u201cUPDATE on the @957thegame \u20184th Period\u2019 SCANDAL: Sources from inside the Game say this was NOT a typo, they use AI to generate their captions (true story)\u2026cuz that\u2019s WAY better,\u201d Copeland wrote<\/a>, with a cry-laughing emoji. \u201cThis is a developing story. Tune into @KNBR for more updates.\u201d<\/p>\n As recounted by Gabe Fernandez at SFGate<\/a>, Copeland kept the good times going on Dirty Work, his KNBR show with Derek Papa, while discussing the game with Sharks TV broadcaster Brodie Brazil.<\/p>\n \u201cI just want to declare: I think the Sharks have been one of the best fourth-period teams in the NHL lately,\u201d Brazil said. \u201cCopes was going in on them over there, huh? \u2026 Some things you gotta, you gotta hold \u2019em to a standard on. If we\u2019re covering the Sharks on AI, I don\u2019t know about that.\u201d<\/p>\n Per SFGate, the Facebook post with the screenshot had been removed, but the clip was still up on their TikTok account<\/a>\u00a0with a different caption.<\/p>\n \t
