Do you trust AI to write the news? It already is – and not without issues Published: November 5, 2023 7.12pm GMT theconversation.com/do-you-trust-ai-to-write-the-news-it-already-is-and-not-without-issues-216909Businesses are increasingly using artificial intelligence (AI) to generate media content, including news, to engage their customers. Now, we’re even seeing AI used for the “gamification” of news – that is, to create interactivity associated with news content. For better or worse, AI is changing the nature of news media. And we’ll have to wise up if we want to protect the integrity of this institution. How did she die? Imagine you’re reading a tragic article about the death of a young sports coach at a prestigious Sydney school. In a box to the right is a poll asking you to speculate about the cause of death. The poll is AI-generated. It’s designed to keep you engaged with the story, as this will make you more likely to respond to advertisements provided by the poll’s operator.

UN warns violence against civilians in Sudan ‘verging on pure evil’ UN humanitarian coordinator for Sudan says war between army and paramilitaries is ‘horrific’ www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/10/un-warns-violence-against-civilians-in-sudan-verging-on-pure-evilViolence against civilians in Sudan is “verging on pure evil,” a senior UNofficial has warned, as fighting escalates seven months into the war between the army and paramilitaries. “We keep saying that the situation is horrific and grim. But, frankly, we are running out of words to describe the horror of what is happening in Sudan,” said Clementine Nkweta-Salami, the UN humanitarian coordinator for Sudan. “We continue to receive unrelenting and appalling reports of sexual and gender-based violence, enforced disappearance, arbitrary detentions and grave violations of human and children’s rights,” she told reporters. “What is happening is verging on pure evil,” she said, citing reports of young girls being raped in front of their mothers. She said she was worried about the risk of a repeat of the genocide of the early 2000s in this region of western Sudan.

OP-ED | IMMIGRATION Far Right Forces Are Attempting to Generate a National Emergency at the Border A crisis is taking shape on the US-Mexico border, but it is not the result of an “invasion” of those seeking asylum. By Justin Akers Chacón , TRUTHOUT PublishedJanuary 30, 2024 truthout.org/articles/far-right-forces-are-attempting-to-generate-a-national-emergency-at-the-border/Since the end of 2020 there has been an increase in attempted immigration, but this should not be coded as a “crisis.” Immigration rates fluctuate based on different factors. Since 2000, for instance, attempted crossings went from a high of 1.6 million to a low of 300,000 by 2017 — an 80 percent decline. The recent rise in refugees attempting to enter the U.S. — reaching a high point of 2.5 million by 2023 — is a result of displacing factors in which U.S. government policy has played a role. For instance, the largest percentage (53 percent) of migrants attempting to enter the U.S. since 2020 have come from Venezuela — where the U.S. government has maintained a suffocating regime of economic sanctions since 2014.
