Actually, at some point, it makes sense to be honest about usage of AI and not feeling to hide that. Just like how food products are expected to print about the ingredients.
One should not feel ashamed to declare the usage of AI, just like you are not ashamed to use a calculator.
I feel like there is a difference here. A calculator has no bias. LLMs do, obviously. News is not the place for bias. Unless the LLM used hallucinated the operator’s intentions, the operator was using the LLM to doctor the article to capture readers not report the news.
I don't see why a content can't carry a label saying "AI-generated", or "Reviewed by AI", or "Refined using AI" etc. This allows consumer to consume it with appropriate caution.
> News is not the place for bias
TBH, I think that journalists tying themselves into pretzels in an effort to remain unbiased does more damage than the presence of some bias. As a consumer of news, I want journalists to be biased, for example, towards the rule of law, the preservations of institutions, and checks & balances, and even norms.
