The AI system from OpenAI can pump out fiction. It can also write fake news or divisive social media posts. All you have to do is serve up the topic or the beginning first sentence, and the AI will do the rest by trying to write human-like text. Researchers have developed an AI that is so good at writing text they’ve decided to keep the technology behind it secret over fears it’ll be exploited to write high-quality fake news. “Due to our concerns about malicious applications of the technology, we are not releasing the trained model,” the research company OpenAI wrote in a blog post on Thursday. The AI, called GPT-2, can produce text of “unprecedented quality” when compared with other computing systems by simply giving it a short writing prompt. For instance, the AI can pump out fiction. It can also finish a homework assignment. All you have to do is serve up the topic or the beginning first sentence, and the AI will do the rest.  [Ray notes: Image students using this to complete creative writing assignments and more]
