Uncover AI-Generated News Content: A Landmark Case in France

Uncover AI-Generated News - At UncovAI, we’re proud to share a concrete use case where our technology made a difference. We were asked to analyse the content of two local news outlets in the Var region amid suspicions of AI-generated articles. Our forensic analysis, covering 46 articles, flagged strong indicators of AI-generated content in 32 articles from one of the sites. Fast forward to today: the CPPAP has officially refused IPG status to Var Actu, citing concerns over generative AI use as a first in France, as reported by La Correspondance de la Presse. This case highlights how UncovAI’s tools can support institutions, media, and regulators in identifying non-transparent uses of AI in published content. We remain committed to promoting transparent, trustworthy journalism in the age of generative AI. Thank you to those who trust us to support this mission.
