Investing.com uses AI to copy competitors' articles without credit
Investing.com, a financial news site owned by Joffre Capital, is accused of using AI to generate stories that closely resemble articles published by competitors such as CryptoNewsLand, The Motley Fool, and FXStreet. The AI-generated pieces often cite the same statistics and sources as the originals but do not credit them. Competitors like FXStreet have expressed concern that this practice threatens original journalism. Investing.com disclosed AI assistance in its stories but did not respond to requests for comment.
