Google is in talks with news organizations to employ artificial intelligence (AI) tools for news article writing. The AI tools could help journalists with headlines and writing styles, but Google clarifies that they are not intended to replace journalists' essential role in reporting and fact-checking. The pitch, known internally as Genesis, has left some executives unsettled. The Associated Press also announced a partnership with OpenAI, exploring generative AI in news. While some outlets use generative AI, news publications have been hesitant due to concerns about factual accuracy and distinguishing human-written content from AI-generated material.
