A Twisted Tale of Artificial Intelligence: An AI Rip-off of an AI Rip-off Report
Watch out folks! Bots are not just churning out Sports Illustrated articles; they’ve gotten into the journalism critiquing business too. In an ironic-as-hell twist, a piece about AI-generated content rip-offs has itself been ripped off by a, you guessed it, AI. Our detective work paid off as we caught a spammy AI from “Toolify.ai” red-handed. Buckle up, as we jump down this surreal rabbit hole.
Key Points:
- Back in November, we did a little investigative journalism and found out Sports Illustrated was letting some AI interns run wild, using them to write articles under pseudo-human bylines. Sneaky? Absolutely. Disturbing? Possibly. Entertaining? Heck yeah!
- Fast forward to February 21, and the plot thickens. An AI-based platform, “Toolify.ai,” had a bit too much curiosity – pun intended – and used its bot minions to rip off our AI rip-off exposé. That’s some meta-level thievery!
- Amplifying the irony, the culprit behind this regurgitation of stolen content is an outfit ironically named “Curiosity”. I guess curiosity didn’t kill the cat this time, it just made it an AI plagiarist.
Final thoughts:
In a world where Skynet is more of a reality than a fantasy, we just witnessed an AI stealing an article about AI stealing content, and honestly, I’m here for this theater of the absurd. These bot shenanigans might seem innocent for now, but who knows when they’ll start writing witty summaries themselves, putting us mere human writers out of business. Brace yourselves, the bot-age era is coming, and it seems like it has a taste for irony!
