Original: Iranian campaign planted fake articles in real U.S. publications using ChatGPT

The disclosure has renewed concerns about AI tools enabling foreign disinformation campaigns to infiltrate trusted Western media outlets at scale.
Why now: The Washington Post's new report on AI-assisted foreign disinformation in mainstream U.S. outlets has just been published.
