Best AI Program for Re-writing News Articles?

edited June 2023 in General

I'm looking at 3 possible AI Programs for re-writing news articles. I wondered which looks better but open to new suggestions for a different AI. I have paid to use an AP-Wire service if I re-write the news articles:

https://writesonic.com
or
https://codecanyon.net/item/aikit-wordpress-ai-writing-assistant-using-gpt3/40507643
or
https://getgenie.ai/

Thanks

  • This review of above "Writesonic":
    https://getgenie.ai/writesonic-vs-rytr-vs-getgenie/

    Claims:
    "Writesonic is an AI writer that comes with a WordPress plugin only to publish content with a single click. On the other hand, GetGenie is the single plugin available in the market that can create and optimize content in WordPress. Lastly, Rytr is not available in the WordPress ecosystem."

    I don't really understand the advantages of GetGenie if Writersonic does have a WordPress plugin?

    What is the purpose of "re-writing news articles", and is that really something that the world needs you to do?

    It sounds like someone who wants to publish stolen news articles and content but doesn't want it to appear too obvious.

    I have a paid subscription to an Associated Press (AP) wire service but can't leave the news articles in the same wordage as original. The paid subscription method is how most news portals get some of their news, through the A.P. or Reuters.

    Nope, the paid subscription method is how most news portals/Newspapers get some of their news, through the A.P. or Reuters.

    And they hire journalists, or writers to do the 'article generation'...

    What journalism lol 😆
    What OP is trying to do sounds very much like what is popularly known as “A.I Autoblog” or something like that. Basically they pick a dropped domain with high DA, backlinks etc, steal content ahem..get news via paid subscription from other websites and spin/rewrite them using those tools to avoid detection by search engines(apparently they don’t like A.I content) and keep posting, mostly all automated.

    Yeah, and that’s exactly not what AP or Reuters is meant for. It is meant to share news firsthand to journalists / editors, who will try to find an interesting angle, find new sources and add value to it. Why would you read a website on someone’s auto-generated site when you can read it at CNN, BBC or Google News? I understand we are in an era now that everything seems to be generated by AI, but that doesn’t mean we can stop adding value to news.

    This. It was lame when people did it with WP-Robot back in the day. It's lame now. It's also not an effective strategy. You don't need a lot of deep thought to understand why.

    @Offshore_Solutions what happened to...

    After all the windmills you've tilted at, stooping to auto-spinning news articles seems disappointingly pedestrian. If you're on new meds, go off them and get back to your strength.

  • emghemgh Member

    As @raindog308 said above, this is way too late

    Article spinning was regarded as a stone age SEO method when I was active in that line of work

    And even that was a long time ago

    Been a local town journalist for 6 years. Not a windmill, not a change in direction.

    Excited to try adding ChatGPT AI technology to my Associated Pess re-writes on national stories so I can focus on writing original local news stories.

    In a small town, they care about the local stories so I want to see if AI can handle the lower priority National news.

    Every time I google something and get an obviously half-assed, AI written article with a story and page and a half of fluff before the actual content I get one step closer to selling everything I own and building a cabin in the woods.

    4 years ago, I tried to get a Trademark on a shoe brand for the pure fun of it, no serious intentions. My Trademark application was opposed by both the Carolina Panthers football team and the NFL.

    According to my attorney, you can sometimes spend enough to reach an agreeable compromise with those opposing your trademark so they feel comfortable with a limited Trademark. I had no chance with the NFL and it was game over.

    Out of curiosity, do you have an example of such an annoying AI article?

    Would it be cool if the newest ChatGPT 4.0 AI can get us closer to a "human-like" article?

    NO!

    Google has already been ruined by stupid fucking sites that generate useless shit.

    That's likely still copyright infringement.

    Hmm, I thought that dinosaurs page was ai generated and used "Timothy Jones" as author as some sort of dig at me at the time. Just a bad coincidence? Or first AI shit he did?

    Why? These people don't have the Internet? C'mon man, you're trying to get search engine views for advertising, which is probably going to be a revenue realization far less than you're paying the AP feed.

    How much does the AP news feed cost?

    He's outed his real name when he referenced Symbol of Trust LLC, so no...

    I call shenanigans. No journalist would have such ignorance of stolen and unattributed material.

    The license I receive by paying the subscription allows me to use the articles from the wire service. No copyright infringement.

    With thousands of subscribers to the same AP-wire service, I need to re-write these articles to avoid Google's penalty.

    Are you sure you're allowed to take their story and change it without attribution? If so, the AP service lawyer should be fired.

    You're correct, at the bottom must appear your source, such as, "From the Associated Press."

    You say you're a local journalist.

    User-Agent: *
    Disallow: /national-news
    

    Only allow Google to index local news section written by local journalists, but not national news section syndicated from Associated Press.
    Problem solved.
