Some sacked journalists warned that artificial intelligence may not be fully familiar with strict editorial guidelines, and could end up letting through inappropriate stories.

So that's how President Trump is getting only 98% negative coverage.

Does this mean AI is now capable of human-like bias and corruption?

Maybe they could get the ‘non-English speaking moron’ that designed their ‘spell-check’ program to design their news website?

That would be a real hoot.

Maybe related? We know how biased Google search selections are. And one could imagine a repeal of Section 230 therefore also applying to Google and Bing in terms of if they are in effect editorizializing in what they present to users, should they likewise be held to the liability standards of publishers?

The first cover the likes of Google and Twitter use to cover for their editorializing is that their algorithm made them do it. So would it not make sense for Microsoft to program their editorial into their algorithms across the board, so they could better first go with that plausible deniability first line of defense?
