🤖 Clickbait Heads Toward Extinction
PLUS: FTC Warns About AI Scams
What's up? You're reading Inclined AI. We’re the syrup on your inbox waffle—the sweet treat that keeps you coming back.
Here's what’s sticking:
Artifact continues to launch new AI features
AI is upgrading scams
AI doomsaying might just be a PR stunt
Solving cold cases is a new impossible task for deep learning models
ARTIFACT’S CREATORS MOVE FAST THANKS TO AI
The crusade to end clickbait headlines starts and ends with Artifact, the news app made by the founders of Instagram. It’s a quest we can all get behind.
AI is the Excalibur that empowers their whole operation, and the entire experience feels like a breath of fresh air. You need to try it out if you read a lot of news (I assume you do if you’re here).

It’s not just a fancy algorithm.
Generative AI plays a huge part in their product, and the new feature they announced has us buzzing with anticipation. It all focuses on community-assisted clickbait elimination.
If someone reports a clickbait title on the app, then Artifact’s AI fixes the headline. So no more clicking on headlines that don’t deliver.
Another feature from their team uses generative AI to summarize any piece to get the main points if you’re in a rush. This app shows you the real power of artificial intelligence in the media.
Imagine something similar for your current news feed. What if Twitter had a generative AI tool that summarizes thread boi posts so you don’t need to waste your time? What if Instagram summarizes the content at the beginning of every long ass story your high school friend spams daily?
We need more features like Artifact’s clickbait eliminator in our rotation.
Too many ideas center on AI, making MORE content and pushing out MORE filler SEO crap.
Let’s clear the air instead.
AI can make your life more manageable, and getting rid of clickbait is the best way to start that mission.

THE FTC IS WORRIED ABOUT AI SCAMS
Don’t worry; Lina Khan knows that AI is helping make scams more possible.
AI voice synthesizing tools help scammers con people out of their money by pretending to be a relative in trouble. It doesn’t always work, but it’s harder to spot than an email from a faraway Prince.
The worry is that the government will be slow to move on this.
Khan claims the FTC is aware of the issue and pushing forward to address these scams. But no one knows when any real progress will come down the pipeline.
That’s the rub. Artificial intelligence moves faster than political organizations can react. Sure, there are laws in place that can help law enforcement punish anyone they catch, but that’s not feasible.
The phony phone dialers move too fast.
Robocalls from unsolicited telemarketers will increase. Emails from GPT-4 that try to sell you fake products will find ways out of your spam folder.
The FTC is unprepared for all the difficult problems these Large Language Models will create.
Who would you bet on? The government or the scammer. Unless things change quickly, I know where I am putting my money.
It’s a story we’ll keep updating you on this storyline, but in the meantime, remember to answer spam calls but stay silent. They’ll think it’s a dud line.
