@cbcnorth: A website using artificial intelligence to generate articles masquerading as journalism is prompting some Yukon First Nations people to say the problem is reaching a tipping point. The website, called WE NEWS, has been lifting the work of actual northern journalists. The website lists three Northern “correspondents” — which it claims are Indigenous — that are also a sham. One is named Kaylee Johns, who is described as “a member of a Yukon First Nation.” The website doesn’t indicate which community. #news #indigenous #yukon #ai #journalism
I think this is a crime??? we shouldn't have ghost writers for journalists

Also, we need to acknowledge that AI is not sentient. These are the actions of real people doing really bad things

This is wild. I won't get into the details but I was assigned to hire Indigenous journalists for a Canadian media outlet in 2024 and there are already inherent issues with verifying the identity of Indigenous journalists due to the challenges with people posing as Indigenous when they don't have any roots in those communities. This certainly complicates matters more.

deeply concerning stuff. if this continues we will need is to go back to the old fashioned way of communicating, off the webb, written and oral texts, delivered by humans.
