A nice story about Xerox discovering this issue in 2003, when their copiers began slightly changing random numbers in copied documents

I don't think machine learning was involved there at all. As I understand it, it was an issue of a specifically implemented feature (reusing a single picture of a glyph for all other instances to save space) being turned on in archive-grade settings, despite the manual stating otherwise.
