Is this some gaslighting AI creation?

No, Nukie is a genuine film and considered one of the worst films ever. Very recently it had many VHS copies destroyed to donate money to charity, which is mentioned in the article.

If you’re referring to if the article is AI generated, I don’t know.

Nope, an actual shitty E.T. knockoff. It's only notable because of RedLetterMedia (the Plinkett Star Wars reviews). People always send them tapes for garbage movies and coincidentally they wound up with a few Nukie copies, people saw the Nukies and started sending more Nukies, and they started sniping Nukie auctions online. They purposely had never even watched the movie, the collection was just an in-joke spun into a larger meme.

What's got people talking about it recently is RLM had their best quality Nukie 'professionally' evaluated and graded, then mulched the entire collection through a wood chipper and auctioned the remaining tape for charity.

There are a few Instagram pages with non existant ai generated tv shows and movies, Timmolloyart does one called "Legend of the golden child" though that's not portrayed as an actual show from this reality. Someone's bound to try and fake one into Mandela effect status tho.
