Newsrooms should preread articles with AI detectors, poster says
Afinetheorem · x · 2026-08-04
The poster says news organizations should use AI detectors, or at least have someone who understands them preread articles.
Why
- They argue the linked article contains sections that are clearly AI-written.
- They suggest checking the text with Pangram.
- The screenshot shows Pangram flagging the article as mixed AI/human writing.
Commentary
- The poster says the article is still “not a bad article.”
- They contrast that with Tyler Cowen’s practice of linking to raw AI output instead of pretending it is fully human-authored.
