....what??
You want regulation that disallows businesses to use technology that the rest of us have access to? What an odd, small view on the matter.
If you don't like companies using AI, then boycott thier products. Don't cry for big government to save you from the walls that you think are closing in around you, because they aren't.
Cant tell if it's AI written or not? Then why should it matter?? I can see a legal basis for requiring disclosure however, on an intellectual property basis, as AI content can not be claimed as IP.
In this case, the magazine created fake journalists with fake bios and used them.in the bylines. I would think that's a kind of fraud and definitely hurts the magazine's trustworthiness. The article goes into other publications that have also used fake journalists with their bylines in AI produced articles. I think if they were more transparent- say, labeling an article "AI created content" - it wouldn't be as much of an issue.
This also doesn't address errors in the AI produced articles (which could be solved by having a real life fair checker or editor).
What a funny way of telling us you didn't read the article.
