    “Ai-generated” “News content” fucking hell.

    Yes ai needs a label to mark it.

    Also news footage needs a label to mark authenticity (clicking on the logo of media should direct you to original source)

    But those two should never ever mix. Ai generated news is fake news and any respectable journalist should stay far from it.

      A lot of “journalism” involves smaller publications paraphrasing and rewriting a larger publications primary article (e.g, your local TV news publishes a story originally reported by Reuters). I could sure see AI being used for those tasks, but it definitely has to be fully reviewed and approved before ever ever getting published.

      They should use “artificially generated” rather than “AI generated”

    How about just AI content. A logo tag at the top of every web page, and every vid. Especially cat vids. It would be nice to be able to tap into them again.

    AI companies are helping create a distrust in media that took the Russian state apparatus decades to perfect. It’s amazing what venture capital can accomplish!

        Vultures wait for shit to die, first. Venture capitalists are parasitic wasps, actively consuming the host carefully to avoid killing it before finishing it off and spreading to others.

    The problem I see is how do you prove something is AI generated in the courtroom

      Most AI is obvious slop.

        Videos and pictures usually have a tell, but finding it in text is much harder. And most of these news articles are gonna be text

        No, its not. And in 5 years you won’t be able to tell.

        Cooked.

      I’ve only ever seem boomers and the overly devout falling for AI videos. We might be able to tell what is likely AI shit, but enough on the jury of our peers likely could or would not.

        That’s for videos, text is much harder to tell. Which would be more applicable for a news website I think

    I prefer “AI-regurgitated” over “AI-generated”, I think it’s more accurate and fittingly repulsive
