AI's Bad Advice, Ukraine's Cold, Twin's Killer?

AI Chatbots, Food Fraud, and International Incidents Dominate Headlines

LONDON - February 10, 2026 - Several significant events are making headlines around the world, ranging from the dangers of AI in healthcare to ongoing international conflicts and criminal investigations. A recent study from the University of Oxford suggests that AI chatbots may pose "dangerous" risks when providing medical advice, while food fraud continues to be a persistent issue, costing the global economy billions. Additionally, a murder trial in France is facing a unique challenge, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues to impact its citizens.

According to a study from the University of Oxford, AI chatbots are giving inaccurate and inconsistent medical advice, making it difficult for users to discern trustworthy information. Dr. Rebecca Payne, the lead medical practitioner on the study, stated that it could be "dangerous" for people to ask chatbots about their symptoms. This comes as polling by Mental Health UK found that more than one in three UK residents now use AI to support their mental health or wellbeing.

Food fraud remains a significant concern, with fraudsters targeting commonly consumed and high-value foods. One 2025 estimate suggests that food crime costs the global economy around $81 billion (110 billion). Honey, seafood, and edible oils are frequently among the most common foods that are faked. Plant-based syrup, such as glucose syrup derived from sugar cane, can be half the price of genuine honey, or even less.

In Ukraine, the ongoing conflict continues to impact its citizens. Deaths from hypothermia are rising as a result of Russian attacks on the energy system. Residents are struggling to stay warm, with some seeking refuge in humanitarian aid points. "I was sitting on the bathroom floor and right away felt the explosion shook us more than usual," said Taira Sluisarenkos, describing a recent attack in Kyiv.

In France, prosecutors are facing a complex legal challenge. DNA found on a gun matches both identical twins on trial for murder, making it impossible to determine who pulled the trigger. The brothers, identified as Samuel and Jeremy Y, are accused of involvement in a double gang murder in September 2020 and several attempted murders the following month.

These stories, along with other breaking news from around the world, are the focus of today's news bulletins.
