The New York Times has greenlit AI tools for product and edit staff

The New York Times now allows its product and editorial teams to use AI tools, which can once write a day of social copy, SEO headlines and code, Reports Semafor.
The news came to the staff via an e -mail, in which the publication announced the debut of his new internal AI Samenomstool called Echo.
The New York Times also shared a series of AI products that could use staff to build web products or to develop editorial ideas, in addition to editorial guidelines for the use of AI tools. The editorial staff of the newspaper are encouraged to use AI tools to suggest edits, brainstorming brainstorming and helping with research. At the same time, the staff were warned not to use AI to draw up an item or to consider considerably or to introduce confidential source information.
These guidelines also suggest that times can use AI to implement digitally expressed articles and translations in other languages.
Semafor reports that the Times said that the AI programs such as Github Copilot programming assistant for coding, Google’s Vertex AI would approve for product development, notebooklm, some Amazon AI products and the non-chatgpt-api from OpenAI via a business account.
The embrace of the New York Times of AI tools is because it is still involved in a lawsuit against OpenAi and Microsoft due to alleged violation of copyright legislation by training generative AI about the content of the publisher.
