Google is exploring using artificial intelligence tools to write news articles and is in talks with news organizations to use the tools to assist journalists, a company spokesperson said late on Wednesday.
These AI tools could assist journalists with options for headlines or different writing styles, for instance, in a way that"enhances their work and productivity," the Google spokesperson said, adding it was in the"earliest stages of exploring ideas". However, some executives who saw Google's pitch described it as unsettling, the NYT said, adding the executives asked not to be identified. The AI tool that was pitched is called Genesis internally at Google, the NYT said, citing people familiar with the matter.
The NYT and Washington Post did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment outside regular working hours.
