The truth about the photos of the MH370 plane wreckage found

A Facebook post on May 30 included three images showing a plane on the seabed with skeletons in the passenger seats.

The post read: "Breaking News: Autonomous Submersible Reveals Location of Malaysia Flight 370 After Years of Mystery," with the hashtag "#MH370LocationRevealed."

The post was shared more than 1,700 times in 12 days, according to USA Today .

Image believed to be the wreckage of MH370

However, according to experts and online detection tools, these images were created using AI. There is no credible news that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 has been found. All include elements consistent with AI-generated images.

James O'Brien, a professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley, told USA Today : The scene in the photo is very clear, not real. The letters and logos on the side of the plane appear in bright colors and in different positions in the two photos believed to be of the wreckage. There are also other differences between the two photos, even though the subject is the same.

"In one photo, there is no '370' on the side of the plane, the nose has been peeled off and the right front door is missing. In the other photo, everything is put together and the number '370' is neatly written on the plane," he analyzed, suggesting that the skeletons sitting on the seats were arranged.

Hive Moderation's AI detection tool found images that were 99.3%, 98%, and 97.5% likely to contain AI-generated content or deepfakes, respectively.

There is no credible news to back up the post’s claim that the wreckage has been found. The post links to an article that claims the plane was found using “advanced underwater drones,” but there is no evidence of that either.

AI-generated images

USA Today reached out to the person who shared the post for more information but did not receive a response.

MH370 disappeared after leaving Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing on March 8, 2014, carrying 239 people. Over the years, a series of search campaigns have been launched but have yielded no results.

The search officially ended in 2017 after covering about 46,000 square miles of the southern Indian Ocean and finding nothing.

Most recently, the American company Ocean Infinity has submitted a plan to search for MH370 to the Malaysian government to implement a new search plan using the "no find, no fee" method.
