Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Context :

AP, other news organisations develop standards for use of AI in newsrooms  …. ET  /  18 Aug 2023



Extract :

The Associated Press has issued guidelines on artificial intelligence, saying :

 

Ø  the tool cannot be used to create publishable content and images for the news service while encouraging staff members to become familiar with the technology.

AP is one of a handful of news organisations that have begun to set rules on how to integrate fast-developing tech tools like ChatGPT into their work. The service will couple this on Thursday with a chapter in its influential Stylebook that advises journalists how to cover the story, complete with a glossary of terminology.



"Our goal is to give people a good way to understand how we can do a little experimentation but also be safe," said Amanda Barrett, vice president of news standards and inclusion at AP.

The journalism think tank Poynter Institute, saying it was a " transformational moment, " urged news organisations this spring to create standards for AI's use, and share the policies with readers and viewers.

Generative AI has the ability to create text, images, audio and video on command, but isn't yet fully capable of distinguishing between fact and fiction. As a result, AP said material produced by artificial intelligence should be vetted carefully, just like material from any other news source

 

Similarly, AP said a photo, video or audio segment generated by AI should not be used, unless the altered material is itself the subject of a story.

That's in line with the tech magazine Wired, which said it does not publish stories generated by AI, "except when the fact that it's AI-generated is the point of the whole story."

 

"Your stories must be completely written by you," Nicholas Carlson, Insider editor-in-chief, wrote in a note to employees that was shared with readers. "You are responsible for the accuracy, fairness, originality and quality of every word in your stories."

Highly-publicised cases of AI-generated "hallucinations," or made-up facts, make it important that consumers know that standards are in place to "make sure the content they're reading, watching and listening to is verified, credible and as fair as possible," Poynter said in an editorial.
