Steve Harvey was recently at the center of a death hoax, with rumors of his passing being linked to a malfunctioning AI (Artificial Intelligence). According to The Wrap, the comedian became the victim of a fake obituary titled “Steve Harvey Passed Away Today: Remembering The Legacy Of A Comedy Legend.”
This article initially posted on Trend Cast News, quickly gained traction after being shared by a popular news platform, Newsbreak. The hoax was further fueled by the fact that the story had a future publish date—December 19, 2024.
The misinformation spread rapidly, and by Wednesday morning, Steve Harvey became one of the top-searched topics on Google. The confusion only intensified when Harvey, 67, posted a snippet from his popular TV show Family Feud on Instagram, which led social media users to question the accuracy of the circulating death rumors.
Despite the widespread confusion, Harvey has not publicly addressed the hoax over the past two days. His social media posts during this time have further disproved the death rumors. For instance, the comedian shared a heartfelt post on Facebook the day before, featuring pictures of his wife, Marjorie Harvey, with a touching caption: “Throwing it back to Christmas moments filled with love, laughter, and reflection. Grateful for my rock, my queen, Marjorie. Every year, every memory, every blessing.”
This death hoax serves as a reminder of the power and potential pitfalls of AI in the digital age. While the comedian’s family and fans have been quick to debunk the rumor, the incident highlights how misinformation can quickly spread, especially when AI systems are involved. Despite the disruption, Steve Harvey continues to share updates on his life, and it’s clear that he is very much alive and well.
