The journalists @eenews.bsky.social and @politico.com want AI to work with us, not against us.

Politicoโ€™s AI tool spits out made-up slop, union says Unionized staffers say the AI tool violates language in their contract.

@maxtani.bsky.social 's latest on our fight against Politico newsroom AI that is making mistakes that would get flesh-and-blood reporters fired. PEN Guild isn't against AI, but management needs to honor our contract on how it gets rolled out.

Politicoโ€™s Newsroom Is Starting a Legal Battle With Management Over AI Politico has rules about AI in the newsroom. Staffers say those rules have been violatedโ€”and theyโ€™re gearing up for a fight.

We're proud our AI agreement has safeguards for journalists jobs-and company ethics, to allow AI use in a way that works for us, not against us. @politico.com already agreed that AI-generated content should be subject to the same standards as human-written articles. It needs to follow the contract
