Errors such as this have been occurring by human hands for decades, while adversarial networks and language models capable of making the same error have only been available for a few years. As such, attributing all such errors to AI is foolish, as humans have already proven capable of making the same types of mistakes.

No, it isn't. The neutral network was invented in 1943. The first digital computer (what we would think of as a computer) was invented in 1938. The Turing Machine concept was created in 1936.

Actually trainable neural networks were way later than that, even.

Then again, AI = neural network is very recent definition, like just a few years, which is probably what OP meant.
