Medium welcomes AI-written posts
Online digital publisher, Medium, has announced that it will gladly welcome posts written by artificial intelligence services like ChatGPT. The platform has imposed a condition that users disclose and clarify the author and give credit to the AI service.
Medium lets anyone create their own blog while selling memberships with exclusive pieces. In a blog post, Scott Lamb, Medium VP of content, shared a post stating that the company "welcomes the responsible use of AI-assistive Technology on Medium".
Lamb stressed that this was just an “initial approach” and that the policy may change with changing technology.
Lamb said, “We believe that creating a culture of disclosure, where the shared expectation of good citizenship is that AI-generated content is disclosed, empowers readers. It allows them to choose their own reaction to, and engagement with, this kind of work, and clearly understand whether a story is machine- or human-written”.
Posts that haven't been disclosed won't be removed but won't be distributed on Medium's recommendation features. The publishing platform won't scan published pieces for AI-generated text
A lot of writers and publications on Medium have banned the use of AI-writing tools, The Verge reported. However, a lot of digital media publications have embraced AI-writing tools like ChatGPT, including Buzzfeed.
