👋 👋 👋 In a recent AI Time Journal Interview, I was asked: How has HackerNoon leveraged AI to enhance its platform? and what lessons have you learned about AI’s role in spam creation and prevention?
https://HackerNoon.com uses AI and machine learning to improve grammar, translate stories, generate featured images, suggest possible headlines, (and note, I would love to hear what else you think we should use AI for!) . Maybe Clippy was ahead of its time? Writers have and will continue to have smart AI assistants. AI can not and should not replace the writer, but it should and can assist the writer and editor throughout the publishing process. We are documenting our approach to editorial at https://EditingProtocol.com. With the rise of LLMs, we’ve seen an influx of AI story spam submissions. Other blogging platforms are hosting so many of these types of machine-generated stories right now. We are actively taking steps not to become a wasteland of AI’s musings. Because every story is reviewed before publication (with about half being rejected), I think our average story quality is higher than other blogging platforms. Every story submission automatically enters into plagiarism and AI writing detection. We highlight what sections are likely, possibly, and unlikely to be written by AI. It’s all about confidence levels. Ultimately, human editors make the final call in interpreting the machines’ reports.
