A teenager was helicoptered off a British Columbia ledge after planning with Claude, and a ranger met a camper who insisted AI had cleared her tent beside a No Camping sign. No surge yet, but at Grand Teton, visitors reporting AI travel help rose from zero to 26 percent in a year. The danger is not that the machine lies on purpose. It answers with confidence on ground it has never walked.
