Current Affairs bans AI-generated text and art, citing threats to human creativity

Current Affairs, a print magazine, adopted an anti-AI policy in its new union contract that bars AI-generated text and AI-generated art from publication.

Editor Nathan J. Robinson says the policy challenges the "slopification of media" as newsrooms replace writers with AI to cut costs.

He cites Business Insider's "all in on AI" stance and the Sports Illustrated case involving AI-written pieces by nonexistent journalists.
