Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens for the delivery of clues about the past. CTOnews.com, July 20 (Xinhua)-- Google is testing a product that uses AI technology to make news reports, and has demonstrated it to executives of the New York Times, the Washington Post and News Corp., which owns the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times reported today, citing three sources.

According to sources, the tool, internally codenamed "Genesis", can receive news about current events and automatically generate news articles.

Tu Yuan Pexels claimed that Google believes the tool can act as a personal assistant to journalists to automate some tasks and "make time for journalists to complete other tasks." In addition, Google also believes that the tool will be very "responsible" and can help publishers "stay away from the AI trap."

In response, Jeff Jarvis, a commentator and journalism professor at the New York Times, said the tool will have potential advantages and disadvantages. " If this technology can reliably provide facts and information, then journalists should indeed use it. On the other hand, if journalists and news organizations abuse the tool on the topic of 'need for nuance and cultural understanding' (require nuance and cultural understanding), it will damage not only the credibility of the tool, but also the credibility of the news organization itself. "

However, the authenticity and accuracy of the news generated by the AI tool is still uncertain. CTOnews.com previously reported that 49 so-called news sites were generated almost entirely by artificial intelligence software, according to NewsGuard, an organization that tracks online rumors.

These sites publish hundreds of stories a day, and there are many signs of AI-generated content, such as "plain language and repetitive phrases". Some articles also contain false information, and the source of the article is not clear: many are not signed or use fake avatars. And many websites are full of advertisements, suggesting that they are set up to make money by advertising. NewsGuard said that experts worried that news sites might be generated by artificial intelligence has become a reality.
