New official tasked with promoting Poland criticised over error-strewn, potentially AI-generated report

A recently appointed Polish official, Barbara Mróz-Gorgoń, has faced widespread criticism after it was revealed that she authored a report rife with errors and potentially AI-generated. The document, titled "A Self-Portrait of the Poles," mixed Polish and English language, incorrectly located major Polish cities, and contained bizarre claims about Polish culture and demographics.

The report was funded by the sport and tourism ministry, though the ministry denies any involvement. Critics are calling for an investigation into potential misuse of public funds, and some suggest that the document was generated by artificial intelligence.
