  1. Ars Technica Publishes A Post With Quotes Fabricated By AI

    Ars Technica recently published an article that had quotes that were fabricated by AI/LLMs. When called on it by the person who was “quoted” for the sheer fact that he was NEVER contacted for a quote, Ars did a retraction.

    There’s much talk about the ethics here and some good commentary here.

    On the latest episode of the TWiT podcast Intelligent Machines, Leo Laporte, Emily Forlini, and Jeff Jarvis talked about it more.

    For context: Jeff is a journalism professor and author, Leo is a veteran radio guy, and Emily is a senior reporter at PCMag.

    So these guys should have an opinion on this.

    Jeff was even handed and explained it like you’d expect a professor to be. Emily was more where I’m at, this reporter needs to be fired. This gives journalism a bad name (one that the industry fights all the time to avoid).

    I was a professional journalist for 6 years in the early 2000s, if someone made up quotes then they’d be axed without discussion.

    Why not now?

    There is no excuse! None!

    This is as bad as Stephen Glass‘ fiasco at the New Republic and Jayson Blair at the NYTimes. This is just for the AI age.

    What do you think? Am I too heated about this? I might be. But this really gets my blood boiling.😁😃🍻

  11. TV news is so broken.

    "NEW TREND AMONG TEENAGERS TO SET THEIR SCHOOL CHROMEBOOKS ON FIRE"

    Shows 1 vid off TikTok.

    <Talks to police lecturing on danger>

    <Fire dept does the same>

    <School official does the same>

    Social media researcher: well, it's only happened once and most of the comments are calling them stupid.

    News host: SHOULD WE TAKE AWAY ALL TECHNOLOGY??!?!?!

    Fucking boomers.

  16. If journalists and reporters are only on #Twitter, then the only public opinions they see are right-wing opinions. Between the user audience, what the algorithm promotes, and the owner's messaging, what they see is entirely right-wing.

    That means most of western journalism is now captured by right-wing messaging and control.

  21. Twitter now has a stated political orientation. You can no longer trust the integrity of any journalist who maintains a concerted following or presence on the platform - they are consuming and amplifying the platform's political narrative.
