American daredevil Alex Honnold's free-climb of Taiwan’s tallest skyscraper in January 2026 was streamed live to a global audience, but an image circulating on social media purportedly showing a cameraman filming the stunt as he hangs off the side of the Taipei 101 building is an AI creation. The image was flagged as having been made with Google's AI tools, and differs from news footage of Honnold becoming the first person to scale the 101-storey tower without a rope, harness or safety net.
