The Battalion to Begin Releasing Articles Generated on ChatGPT

Yesterday morning, The Battalion announced that 100 percent of its articles would be AI-generated by 2024. The operational overhaul comes after going over budget on papyrus and quill pens for the third consecutive year.

“Let’s be honest for a second,” Gavin LeBlanc, a writer for the opinion desk, said. “We’ve been on autopilot for a long time now anyway. Many people were shocked to hear that The Battalion released full-length articles, to begin with.”

Frequent criticism from both administration and disgruntled 50-somethings on Facebook was also been cited as a demoralizing factor in human contribution. “Those boomers thought they could hurt our feelings,” LeBlanc said of their Facebook comment section. “Too bad it’s Artificial Intelligence, not Artificial Emotions!”

The Battalion is also rumored to be developing AI for predictive sports reporting. Full articles have already been generated and reportedly find there are no championships in sight.
