Earlier this year, WIRED asked AI detection startup Pangram Labs to analyze Medium. It took a sampling of 274,466 recent posts over a six week period and estimated that over 47 percent were likely AI-generated. “This is a couple orders of magnitude more than what I see on the rest of the internet,” says Pangram CEO Max Spero. (The company’s analysis of one day of global news sites this summer found 7 percent as likely AI-generated.)
Omg the amount of times I’ve clicked on a Medium article in the last month and immediately knew it was AI is so frustrating!!! They aren’t even helpful articles because you can tell there is no real understanding.
