G/O Media, a major online media company that runs publications including Gizmodo, Kotaku, Quartz, Jezebel, and Deadspin, has announced that it will begin a “modest test” of AI content on its sites.
…
The trial will include “producing just a handful of stories for most of our sites that are basically built around lists and data,” Brown wrote. “These features aren’t replacing work currently being done by writers and editors, and we hope that over time if we get these forms of content right and produced at scale, AI will, via search and promotion, help us grow our audience.”
I honestly don’t think people will be able to tell the difference. I cannot even count the amount of times I’ve searched for the solution to a PC issues I’m having only to be met with articles that have “How to solve X issue” only for the article to never mention it. Those crappy articles are what drove me to Reddit to get solutions from actual people (RIP Reddit)
