According to allegations, Google pays significant fees to some publishers for writing news using its artificial intelligence tools. It is thought that these agreements, which cost the company hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, were made within the scope of the Google News Initiative (GNI) initiative, the foundation of which was laid 6 years ago.
The initiative, which ostensibly aims to increase society’s media literacy and trust in communication tools, started an artificial intelligence activity that could be ethically questionable, which drew the reaction of many people. Here are all the details…
Google poured a fortune into artificial intelligence content!
It is said that the artificial intelligence tools, which are currently used by only a small group of publishers, are still in beta stage. It is claimed that these tools can bring together numerous original content previously published about a topic on the internet and create a news text.
If this claim is true, it seems like things could be in turmoil in the publishing world. It is stated that the authors, who are required to share an average of 3 separate articles a day within the scope of the agreement, earn an annual income of more than 10 thousand dollars. We can say that such an additional job would be quite attractive for the publishing industry, which is in financial difficulties.
Google suspended it due to racism: When is Gemini coming back?
Google removed it due to racism discussions. The company answered the question ‘When is Gemini coming back?’
However, it is not disclosed in any way that these contents, which were published after a very detailed process, received assistance from artificial intelligence. There are those who say that this situation will gradually destroy the boundaries between original content and artificial.
The main aim of Google management, which claims that it started this path with good intentions, seems to be to ensure that current news content that has a wide readership is written by artificial intelligence. In this way, the company can have another source of permanent income.
