The controversy surrounding the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in content generation at Reviewed, a USA Today-owned site, is causing skepticism among staffers. Despite Gannett's denial, about 40 people at Reviewed believe AI is being used to replace journalists, and that fabricated bylines are being used. This issue is bringing to light the broader implications of AI in the news industry, as the New York Times is also seeking an AI editor.
