Dublin [Ireland], November 3: Police in Northern Ireland said an image of a person dressed as a Hamas fighter during a Halloween event in Londonderry may have been generated by artificial intelligence, the chief constable has said. Police are investigating a report of the costume following the circulation of an image on social media which appeared to show a person in the Guildhall Square in Londonderry dressed in a uniform with 'HAMAS' spelt on it. The interim chief constable of Northern Ireland's police service, Jon Boutcher, said he been made aware of a suggestion it could have been generated by artificial intelligence. "None of our police officers saw anybody in that outfit. Nobody has made a complaint to either the staff who were stewarding or security for the event, and the event took place over three or four days," he told a meeting of the Northern Ireland policing board.
