Summary: The BBC's dropped two studies on AI and news accuracy, and the headline everyone's running with is that AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time. Scary stuff, right? Except here's the thing nobody's talking about: a 2020 study found that 69% of human-written news articles contain errors. So AI's actually doing better than journalists, which puts this whole panic in a rather different light. The real standout disaster here is Gemini—Google's AI had significant issues in 76% of responses, more than double the other assistants, largely due to terrible sourcing. That's particularly worrying since Gemini powers AI Overviews, which means loads of people are getting dodgy information straight from Google search results.

What's genuinely interesting though is that when you compare the BBC's February study to this October one, there's been massive improvement in just six months. We're talking significant drops in error rates across the board. The BBC's research is important work, but we have to remember they're a news organisation funding studies about whether people still need news organisations—they're not exactly unbiased here. Most people will just read the headline and miss the nuance entirely, which is exactly what happened with that nonsense MIT study claiming 95% of AI projects fail. The real takeaway? AI's getting better fast, it's already outperforming human journalists in accuracy, but yes, 45% having at least one issue is still rubbish and needs fixing.
