Can AI judge journalism? A Thiel-backed startup says yes, even if it risks chilling whistleblowers
After helping lead the lawsuit that bankrupted media firm Gawker, Aron D’Souza says he saw something broken in the American media system: people who felt harmed by coverage had little recourse to fight back. His solution is software. D’Souza says his latest startup, Objection, aims to use AI to adjudicate the truth of journalism. And for the price of $2,000, anyone can pay to challenge a story, triggering a public investigation into its claims. (D’Souza is also the founder of the Enhanced Games, an Olympics-style competition that allows performance-enhancing drugs and is set to debut in Las Vegas next month.)المصدر: TechCrunch | Source: TechCrunch
