AI-generated content is being criticized for its left-wing bias and inaccuracies by News Corp CEO Robert Thomson. He called it “rubbish in, rubbish out” and warned that it could lead to more job losses in the news industry. Left-leaning media giants have been producing stories with errors and a left-wing slant for years, and bots like ChatGPT regurgitate this content as fact. Thomson believes that AI is essentially retrospective and relies on permutations of pre-existing content. He cautioned that AI can potentially distribute damaging and biased content instead of elevating and enhancing information. Thomson also demanded that companies using AI engines pay publishers for the content they’re training their engines on. He warned of a damaging wave looming for the news industry as AI poses a significant threat to an industry already struggling due to the influence of Big Tech. Despite some media companies considering legal action, Thomson stated that News Corp is more interested in negotiation than litigation, preferring to reward journalists rather than lawyers.
