The Inside Story on the State Journal’s AI Scandal
Description
In July, the Wisconsin State Journal published a story on redevelopment plans for the Brayton Lot on East Washington Avenue that included AI-generated quotes and false details of the development plans. The paper later removed the piece, rereported on the issue, and fired the original author. Audrey Korte, the reporter at the heart of the mistake, recently broke her silence in an interview with Isthmus. Host Bianca Martin talks with Isthmus editor Judith Davidoff about Korte’s story and what local media can learn from it.
