London Standard to Publish AI-Written Review in Style of Late Critic Brian Sewell

The AI-generated piece, approved by Sewell's estate, will review a Van Gogh exhibition as part of the newspaper's new weekly edition.

The London Standard's first weekly edition will feature an AI-written review mimicking the style of the late art critic Brian Sewell.
The review will cover the Van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery, aiming to provoke discussion about AI's role in journalism.
Paul Kanareck, the interim chief executive, stated that Sewell's estate is delighted with the experimental initiative.
The newspaper has recently transitioned from a daily to a weekly publication, resulting in significant editorial staff layoffs.
The move has sparked mixed reactions, with some commentators finding it controversial and questioning the ethical implications.
