Show Notes
McGill University researchers found that AI chatbots like ChatGPT often fail to credit original news sources, favoring larger outlets and neglecting smaller, regional, or French-language ones. This raises concerns about AIs role as a news source, as it can profit from journalists work without compensation. Experts suggest reforms, including extending news payment laws to AI, adding mandatory source credits, and global licensing deals, to protect the news ecosystem.
