BuzzFeed Admits That Its Writers Are NPC Robots, Hires AI Program to Generate Content

BuzzFeed will be the first of many media companies to replace "content creators" with AI, but it won't be the last.

Legal Insurrection readers may recall that I reported on ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer), a chatbot launched by OpenAI this past November. The New York Times hailed it as "the best artificial intelligence chatbot ever released to the general public."
I also noted that the chatbot passed a Wharton Business School test as well as the US Medical Licensing exam . . . it is that good.
Now comes news that another program from OpenAI will be used to create content for the digital media and entertainment site BuzzFeed.
BuzzFeed Inc. said it would rely on ChatGPT creator OpenAI to enhance its quizzes and personalize some content for its audiences, becoming the latest digital publisher to embrace artificial intelligence.
In a memo to staff sent Thursday morning, which was reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, Chief Executive Jonah Peretti said he intends for AI to play a larger role in the company's editorial and business operations this year.

For the moment, AI will be used to generate "personalized" results for Buzzfeed's idiotic quizzes, but the company has posted a quiz that was created by the Chatbot, and plans to use the Chatbot to write BuzzFeed content -- taking cues from humans (or NPCs), who will provide its "prompts," or idea seeds.

Legal Insurrection notes that BuzzFeed's stock value increased on the news.

Instead of journalists learning to code, the code is learning journalism.

I'm just going to post links all day. I had very bad sleep last night and can't get my brain together. Maybe I'll try getting the chatbot to write some posts for me.

17 I've looked at the samples on ChatGPT's website. They are "good enough" but I'd hardly call them "great."

If they are able to fool a normal human, that doesn't reflect too well on the human's ability to judge the quality and style of content.

To me, there is a distinct lack of "humanness" to the responses I've seen generated so far. Sort of like an Uncanny Valley for reading. You can tell that it's trying to mimic human writing, but doesn't fully understand it.

J.J. posted a link to an article in the MR where the author attempted to get ChatGPT to answer for/against questions with a non-liberal bias and got nowhere.

81 Back in the Before Times of 2018, Reuters announced the use of AI in the newsroom. Not to write the articles, but to do story selection:

The system will churn through massive datasets, looking for anything interesting: a fast moving stock price, intriguing changes in a market, or subtler patterns. Journalists are handed that information however they choose — in an email, messenger service, or via their data terminals when they sit down for a shift — alongside key context and background to help jumpstart their research if they think the story is worth pursuing.

They could just feed the output into ChatGPT so it can write the article, and remove humans from reporting entirely.

145 This should be no surprise to anyone. For years now, "listicles" have read like either bots or Chinese content factories.

I saw a list of "30 Best Small Towns In America" that included Welch, WV. Having worked for awhile not too far from Welch, and knowing exactly what Welch truly is, it was obvious that someone or something had merely scraped the internet for pictures of small towns and then shat out some content for each one. Welch does have one scenic block next to a small river, which you can see if you turn your back to the open air drug market, burned out houses, and overrun government businesses. No one in their right minds would ever drive through there, let alone sing its praises.

Anyway, cool story bro. This is what clued me in to how content farms like BuzzFeed do business.

221 ChatGPT, write a short story in the style of Ernest Hemingway about an astronaut.
-------
The astronaut floated alone in the void of space. He looked down at the blue marble of Earth, so far away. He thought of home and all he had left behind.

He was on a mission to touch the face of the moon, to walk on its surface and plant the flag of his country. He was the first and he would not be the last.

But now, he was lost. The engines of his spacecraft had failed and he was adrift, carried further and further from his goal. He felt a sense of sadness and regret. He thought of his wife and children, waiting for him to return.

He remembered his training, the countless hours of preparation and the countless simulations. He focused on his breathing and the sound of his heartbeat. He would not give up. He would find a way back to Earth, or he would die trying.

And it's brilliant because it's the ultimate expression of the teams and committees every one of us has been put on by a boss at some point with the job given as "I want to incorporate X and Y, and I want y'all to look into the positives and negatives of it."

Meaning "I intend to do this, and I want the cushion of a half dozen people being able to spread the blame around, and I'm not going to accept any of it because I formed the committee and they said it was fine."

That's all it will be. The computer program will perform as it's programmed.

270 Create conflict with the antagonist, a children's doll.
----
The astronaut floated alone in the void of space, accompanied only by his loyal companion, the dog. But as they drifted further from home, they began to sense they were not alone. A strange presence seemed to lurk in the shadows, and the dog barked and growled at nothing in particular.

The astronaut's heart raced as he searched for the source of the disturbance. And then, he saw it. A children's doll, floating aimlessly in the darkness. It was a creepy, lifeless thing, with glassy eyes and a sinister grin.

The astronaut tried to ignore the doll and focus on his mission, but the doll seemed to follow him, taunting him with its gaze. He tried to shoo it away, but it always returned, closer and closer. The dog barked and snarled at the doll, but it paid no attention.

Yes, but there's a wrinkle. You can ask it to regenerate the response a couple dozen times and it will do re-writes each time. So if you do that, plus put some things in your own words (AKA the encyclopedia Britannica method), plus add in a colorful fact or anecdote, you're golden.

Her husband of several years at that time, Bill Asher, certainly did. The story goes that when she first wore the black wig, he got so revved up that they stopped at a motel after leaving the studio and before they went home.

440 Teachers will be too lazy to recognize it. Kids will use it for everything.

Teachers will have assignments turned in electronically and just feed them back into the same bot for grading. Everyone gets an A, the school district gets high ratings, the superintendent gets a job advising the governor, the students all get accepted to college, the globe starts to cool... Oops sorry, started getting carried away there.

442 House Speaker Kevin McCarthy sent President Joe Biden a tense message on Tuesday, one day before their highly-anticipated meeting at the White House to discuss how to avoid a catastrophic default on the U.S. debt.

“Mr. President: I received your staff’s memo. I’m not interested in political games,” the speaker tweeted. “I’m coming to negotiate for the American people.”

446 > Whenever I occasionally come across/see/hear almost any normal "news" source, I am often dumbfounded (still) at the garbage, nonsense, distortion, or outright lies - not to mention the idiotic selection of "topics".

It's pretty amazing how many "news" articles are now "here are two tweets", plus a little bit of background, plus a little handwringing about what worrying trend those tweets might possibly signify aaaand done. Send. Publish.

Ace regularly puts more effort into his posts than I see at major news publications.

As much as I want to support the Blue, we all (conservatives too) need to admit that there is a policing problem in America. Law enforcement needs to stop recruiting almost exclusively from the military, which is the way it has been for too long.

Mine doesn't match my place of birth, but unlike Obama, I have a good reason. My Dad was military and he submitted the paperwork as he was being transferred.

The unilever-owned American Mayo brand, Hellmann's, is pulling back from the South African market due to low demand on top of "highly inflationary import costs." Starting today, the creamy mayo is being discontinued in South African markets and will no long be seen on store shelves online. However, it'll still be available in the United States.
