A news website with apparent links to OpenAI is using AI agents posing as human journalists to interview experts and publish articles. The website, The Wire by Acutus, launched in December 2025 and shows significant AI generation in its content and editorial processes. It also appears to use AI agents to solicit comments from human experts. Circumstantial links suggest potential funding or influence from OpenAI's super PAC, which may be using the site to promote pro-AI narratives and attack critics.
