Such gigs are part of a new category of work spawned by the generative AI boom that threatened to displace creative jobs across the board: Anyone can now write blog posts or produce a graphic, but AI-generated content rarely makes for a satisfactory final product on its own.

Exactly! "AI tends to give generic responses that don’t answer questions as thoroughly as a human would, so rewriting an article also requires doing her own research on the topic at hand.... Making AI sound more human can require just as much thinking and creativity as writing the entire article."

The AI boom has created a new type of work: fixing botched AI. Designers are being hired to remake wonky AI art. Writers are asked to make ChatGPT’s writing sound more human. Even software developers are tasked with fixing buggy vibe coding. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

When a teenage boy told ChatGPT about his suicide plans, it said: “I won’t try to talk you out of your feelings.” His family is suing after ChatGPT actively discouraged him from seeking help, offered to help him write a suicide note and even advised him on his noose setup.

As people turn to chatbots for increasingly important and intimate advice, recent incidents are causing growing alarm over just how much AI can warp your sense of reality. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

Researchers are trying to “vaccinate” artificial intelligence systems against developing evil, overly flattering or otherwise harmful personality traits in a seemingly counterintuitive way: by giving them a small dose of those problematic traits. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

GPT-5 is here, with wide-ranging improvements to skills in areas like coding, writing and completing agentic tasks. OpenAI touts it as more accurate and less deceptive — as well as less sycophantic — than previous GPT models. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

Safety researchers found that AI models can imperceptibly pass on dangerous traits to each other through totally benign training data, making it easy for AIs to spread hidden agendas under humans' noses. Wrote about what that means: www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

I asked DeepSeek to explain China’s Great Firewall, and it actually called it a “a comprehensive internet censorship and surveillance system" that's been subject to "international criticism for limiting freedom of information and expression.” Then, it backtracked in real time.

what makes deepseek so different from other models? we analyzed the features that enabled deepseek to build such a large, high-performing model with fewer resources and lower costs: www.nbcnews.com/data-graphic...

Went to evacuation centers in LA to hear from the hundreds of people finding community there, whether by sheltering together or offering aid. Many have lost everything they have, relying now only on the support and generosity of strangers. Story: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Really strong reporting from on the ground by @angelayang.bsky.social from emergency shelters in L.A. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Plus who could forget her Willy Wonka experience coverage? @angelayang.bsky.social www.nbcnews.com/tech/willy-w...

@angelayang.bsky.social has been vital to our coverage across the board as well, especially helping out during Sunday shifts. She’s written about everything from AI (www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...) + misinfo (www.nbcnews.com/news/world/p...) to tradwife culture (www.nbcnews.com/tech/dating-...)

My favorite story by @angelayang.bsky.social this year was her piece about politics at Thanksgiving, which she pitched and executed so well. It turned into a timely holiday read. www.nbcnews.com/news/thanksg...

wicked in 4D felt a little too 4D when the theater's emergency alarm went off and we all sat there thinking it was part of the movie

*obligatory not condoning assasssinations* but the pearl clutching and lack of self-awareness here from insurance execs is somehow just as shocking as is it unsurprising

Happy almost Thanksgiving. @angelayang.bsky.social wrote about how some people are opting out of partaking in the holiday with their families this year because of (you guessed it) politics. www.nbcnews.com/news/thanksg...
