It is not a good precedent to appropriate work from other creators, even if you think more art will be created through AI. Intellectual property is protected in every field and service; however, for some reason, AI large language models have been able to use intellectual property for their own benefit, because it hasn’t been properly regulated yet. Many argue that ChatGPT isn’t “creating” anything; it is simply plagiarizing it and calling it their own.

“The big challenge that all of us have right now is that we’re getting inundated with information all the time,” Rachel Velasco, community engagement coordinator for KWBU, said. “How can you know who wants you to hear that message? There’s always a reason that a message is being given to you.”
AI grows more capable and sophisticated each day, making it all the more enticing and convenient for students to use as they earn their education. But, with such a high-powered tool at our fingertips, setting boundaries around its use is more important than ever.
If your realization is that you really don’t know all that much about journalism, don’t worry — you’re not the only one. Mob mentality spreads like fire on the internet, and it’s all too easy to connect the negativity and offensiveness of what’s happening in our world to the source that reports it. But we ask you, please, don’t shoot the messenger.
Growing up in the boom of technology, college students have come to know the changing landscape of school and work. Whether it be the regularity of weekend exams, 11:59 p.m. deadlines or last-minute emails, the way current students interact with school is severed from the “good ol’ days” — weekends and breaks absent of homework — preached upon by elders.
In a world saturated with digital manipulation, it’s important for us to stay vigilant and aware of what we are seeing. When it comes to photojournalism, we must take care to ask: is what we’re seeing authentic, or is something more going on?
In 1961, the machine sang its first words. Surrounded by engineers and programmers, the IBM 7094 became the first computer to carry a tune. Now, as artificial intelligence sings covers of songs and creates them from nothing more than a prompt, we have come a long way since the earliest babbling of machine-generated music.
“AI can make a lot of decisions much faster, but I think as a society, we’re not yet willing to accept the cost of our decision because of liability if a doctor makes the wrong decision,” Rivas said. “If AI is making decisions, who is responsible for that?”
This is how we are trained as journalists, and I think when we live by these rules — and, most importantly, keep open minds and hearts — it can be a step toward a dependable and trustworthy future.

It’s difficult to conceptualize a solution to propaganda on social media. However, what we can do is check the source of the media we consume. Is this a 35-year-old filming commentary in their mom’s basement or an article from The Wall Street Journal?
As a society, we need to be careful with technology. We can’t let it be our downfall or truly rely on it for everything. The growth of AI can be seen as cool, but it can also be very dangerous to us. Be careful with what you say near your phone because you never know who may be listening.
When talking about artificial “intelligence,” most people assume that the model is right and that it can be trusted. However, AI models are learning models, which means they are basically students. They consume information and spit it out when asked. This does not mean the information spit out is always right.
To ban the use of an emerging technology simply out of fear will result in unfamiliarity with a tool of the future. Generative AI programs will not just disappear because educational institutions don’t like their capability for dishonesty.
