You’ve been warned that artificial intelligence “hallucinates” (lies or makes up stuff). While you likely expect that in written work, you have to look out for it in photos, too.
Matt Groh and his colleagues at Kellogg School of Management have identified five categories of “artifacts and implausibilities” to help people tell the difference between real and AI-generated images. “Are there missing or extra limbs or digits? Bodies that merge into their surroundings or into other nearby bodies? A giraffe-like neck on a human?”
That’s just one of the interesting posts about AI that I’ve recently found and shared on social media. Here are some others:
You can accomplish more with AI, says Samantha Stark, but remember to use it strategically – “not just for efficiency, but to push our creative boundaries and tell better stories.” In PR Daily.
I love Ann Handley’s take on NOT using AI for first drafts: “The first draft is the thinking draft. That’s where you need to be fully present. On board. Just you and your glorious ideas. Otherwise, you undermine yourself. You shortchange your growth and creativity. You put the ROBOTs first. You put yourself second…Protect the part of you that truly makes your content, your writing, your voice your own.”

“AI is an incredible tool for research, outlining, and even first drafts, but it cannot replace the expertise and personality that makes your content uniquely yours.” Gini Dietrich talks about a clear roadmap for AI integration.
“What had started out as a prompt about 14th century architecture ended up as a list of types of jackrabbits.” ScienceNews finds turning to AI to train future AIs may be a bad idea.
An interesting look at using AI to rewrite for tone, “an application where AI can shine,” says Allison Carter in PR Daily.
