CNET corrected most of its AI-written articles

CNET has issued corrections for over half of the AI-written articles the outlet recently attributed to its CNET Money team. Following an internal audit after it was first notified of an AI-written article with substantial errors, CNET Editor-in-Chief Connie Guglielmo says the publication identified additional stories that required correction. She claims a "small number" needed "substantial correction," while others had "minor issues" that saw CNET fix things like incomplete company names and language the outlet deemed was vague. In all, of the 77 articles the publication now says were written as part of a trial to test an "internally designed AI engine," 41 feature corrections. As The Verge points out, some articles feature corrections that note CNET "replaced phrases that were not entirely original."
