Fox News correspondent Grady Trimble has the latest on fears the technology will spiral out of control on'Special Report.' Gannett, the parent company for USA Today and a number of local newspapers, has paused an artificial intelligence experiment following criticisms that AI-generated sports articles were awkwardly phrased and lacked details. A handful of Gannett-owned papers briefly published AI-generated sports stories this month based on box score data, Axios reported, which were quickly met with condemnation from social media commenters. The Columbus Dispatch is one of a handful of the newspapers that faced criticisms for awkward phrasing, such as describing a high school football game as "high school football action," which left readers calling the article "terrible." Other awkward phrasing included AI describing the Ohio game as a "close encounter of the athletic kind," according to Axios.
