OpenAI Just Released an Even Scarier Fake News-Writing Algorithm

OpenAI, the AI company that Elon Musk founded and then quit has just released a more powerful version of its AI text-writing software. The company still won't release their full software - that can be used to write fake news and messages en masse - due to fears it might be misused. OpenAI says its text-writing system is so advanced it can write news stories and even fiction that passes as human. A user can feed the system text - anything from a few sentences to pages of it - and the system will then continue that same text in an uncannily well-written, contextually relevant, human style. However, after releasing its original system, GPT-2, in February, the company said the full software was too dangerous to release to the public - a weaker version was made available. Now, the company has announced it has released a version of GPT-2 that is six times more powerful.
