“This highlights issues with A-I generated content crowding out human writers and the need for Google to better regulate such sites to ensure quality.”
Can agree with the first part of that statement, but Google regulating…feels like handing a fox the keys to the hen house.
Regulation of industry should be coming from our legislators, but they’re too busy polarizing their base, abasing themselves to donors and gilding their own cages to care.
Apologies for the rant, but this whole “AI” imbroglio is a textbook case of the cart put before the horse whilst heading downhill.
Yes, exactly. Google is causing this problem by making a way for this crap to be monetized, and driving the human eyeballs to it. The solution is not to further enable Google as a gatekeeper to information, but to simply replace them.
