The new tool, Genesis, is being pitched to news outlets as a "helpmate" for writing articles, 'The Guardian' reports.
According to Google, the technology is not meant to replace journalists altogether.
.
These tools are not intended to replace the role journalists have in reporting, creating and factchecking their articles.
, Google, via statement.
Our goal is to give journalists the choice of using these emerging technologies in a way that enhances their work and productivity, just like we’re making assistive tools available for people in Gmail and in Google Docs, Google, via statement.
According to a person familiar
with the product, Google views the tool
as a way to "steer the publishing industry away from the pitfalls of generative AI.".
However, two 'New York Times'
executives said the AI tool "seemed to
take for granted the effort that went into producing accurate and artful news stories.".
The introduction of Genesis follows a deal recently made between OpenAI and the Associated Press in which the ChatGPT maker was granted access to the news agency's story archive for training purposes.
.
A report published by accounting firm KPMG last month estimates that 43% of what authors, writers and translators do could be performed by AI tools.
Last week, it was reported by the Organization for
Economic Cooperation and Development that we are on
the "cusp of an AI revolution" which could deplete
jobs in law, medicine and finance, 'The Guardian' reports.

Meanwhile, Apple is reportedly
developing its own chatbot, Apple GPT,
to rival ChatGPT, 'Bloomberg' reports

Tips For Integrating , AI Tools , Into Your Business.
'Newsweek' reports that the key to integrating
AI-powered tools into your business is to ensure a
solid IT infrastructure has been established to support it. .
Without that foundation, AI tools could be greatly limited or undermined all together in their ability to provide a return on investment. .
According to data provided by Forrester, 62% of
global business and tech professionals expect AI investments to significantly increase over the next year.
This means that business leaders must
gain a realistic understanding of how specific
AI applications could help their company.
By deploying applications that help
enhance productivity and personalize
processes, organizations can use
Generative AI to accelerate the pace
of their business, evolving an
experimental investment into
an established value driver, Deloitte AI Institute, via 'Newsweek'.
A clear plan should include a way to measure the impact
of AI within specific areas of your business before
scaling its use widely across the company.
IT infrastructure should include a well
thought out strategy for cloud computing
and access to a reliable high-speed network. .
Ensure accurate, up-to-date and complete data for more
reliable AI outputs, which means regularly cleaning,
normalizing and structuring data to improve AI training.
The addition of AI tools also means investing in a
sophisticated cybersecurity strategy like Secure Access
Service Edge (SASE) and Security Service Edge (SSE).
Developing the necessary in-house know-how to fully
utilize AI tools means investing in training or in a third-
party IT-managed service provider (MSP) for AI support

some fiber in the morning, Leslie Bonci, a sports dietitian for the Kansas City Chiefs

Cereal can also be a great way to
get micronutrients and one of the
best ways to ensure B vitamin
intake is included in your diet. , Leslie Bonci, a sports dietitian for the Kansas City Chiefs
and founder of Active Eating Advice, via 'USA Today'.
However, "cereals that are made of refined grains – grains that have had parts of the grain kernel removed – are lower in fiber and nutrients," according to registered dietitian Kate Zeratsky.
Added sugars are also a concern. For adults, the FDA advises consuming no more than 50 grams of added sugars per day as part of a 2,000-calorie diet.
The agency recommends that
children don't exceed 25 grams.
But some cereals contain large amounts of added sugars, such as Post's Golden Crisp, which has
21 grams of added sugars in just one cup.
Zeratsky suggests sticking with cereal brands that have added sugars "in the single digits" that also contain whole grains.

US Housing Market , Sees Sales of New Homes , Plummet in Several States.
'Newsweek' reports that sales of new homes
across the Northeast and Midwest plummeted
in February, dragging the overall housing
market down across the country.
The news comes at a time when elevated
mortgage rates have already dissuaded
many buyers from purchasing property.
In the Northeast, sales of single-family
homes dropped 31.5%, while the Midwest
saw a more modest decline of 2.4%. .
Sales in the South and West saw
positive increases, with 3.7% and 2.3%,
respectively for the month.

According to analysts,
the disappointing numbers
are the result of high mortgage rates.
Rising mortgage
rates subdued
activity in February, Yelena Maleyev, senior economist for KPMG, via 'Newsweek'.
As a result of high mortgage rates, homebuyers
remain reluctant despite lower prices, which
dropped to their lowest level since June 2021. .

According to government data, the median
sale price for a single-family home fell by
over $14,000 to reach around $400,000. .
Sales were spurred by a rise
in inventory, as 1.07 million
homes were available for sale
at the end of the month, Yelena Maleyev, senior economist for KPMG, via 'Newsweek'.

enough to offset the upward
pressure on existing home values;
