Well, most News Articles are such low quality and without any research anyway, this wouldn't really make any difference
“This just in, a new study has shown AI poses not material threat to society, go about your business fellow humans”
No need Google, we have r/politics for that. Those bots from there also have opinions.
Oh God, no. This can only go wrong.
In the best case scenario this could be really good. I'm looking forward to a news site run by AI that just gives me the unbiased facts without its own political twist in it.
- AI is not unbiased. AI incorporates the biases of the data it is fed and the people who created it. "Unbiased AI" is a myth (and so is unbiased news/media, but that's another discussion).
  
  This might apply to LLMs and such but there's no reason a true AGI couldn't be completely unbiased though it could also be biased in a way that benefits itself.
