In a recent experiment, a freelancer was paid $365.63 on Fiverr to create an AI-generated news site. This site scraped content from various tech websites, including the one conducting the experiment, and used ChatGPT to reword the articles before publishing them. The experiment highlights a growing trend where AI-generated content is becoming prevalent, but often lacks accuracy and reliability. Media publishers are signing deals with tech companies to direct users to their articles despite the imperfections in AI-generated citations. Writers are getting callbacks to polish 'shoddy' AI-generated content and add a human touch for less pay. Search startup Perplexity is increasingly citing AI-generated blogs, which have been found to contain inaccurate, outdated, and sometimes contradictory information. In one instance, Perplexity cited an AI-generated post from a medical clinic with unclear ownership.
