The paper’s editor had lamented how an intern pulled out of a reporting fellowship after discovering that the position required feeding notes into an AI writing tool instead of writing stories.
Power move. I wish that intern a long and successful career.
respect for the real one.
An economy built entirely on buying really expensive hammers says hammers are inevitable and going to be necessary for everything they’re terrible for from wiping your b hole to making important decisions. It’s anti economian to not want to use hammers every waking minute of your life. Oh god why aren’t more people buying these hammers.
it just makes sense, eh?
White collar jobs are gonna be exhausting for the next few years as rich people with zero consequences get this garbage out of their system.
every time someone tries to put the economy on lock they end pushing the formation of an alternative system outside of their control.
Having the same thought.
If capitalism eats its own children it might force the world to use FOSS and non-proprietary company structures.
its a governance problem or if being specific unwillingness to govern that takes the economy into these deep waters. But what else we can expect when the government is in the big tech’s pocket
Ugh i wish
It’s telling that LLM thumpers think it’s appropriate to treat skeptics of their slop like a rape victim.
no matter how hard they try - it is still slop and it is called like that for a reason
“Because local newsrooms are so strapped, they are turning for assistance on the news making process in every direction,” Rinehart wrote in a company Slack message. “Advance Publications got there first, others will follow,” she added, referring to the Plain Dealer’s publisher. “Resistance is futile. " […] Spinning a yarn, Rinehart also claimed that some editors told her that they would “prefer to have reporters report and have articles at least pre-written by AI.” […] “There are many — and I mean MANY — editors who would prefer an AI-written article to a human-written one,” she wrote. “Reporting and writing are two different skill sets and rare — RARE — is the occasion when it’s wrapped into one person.”
I’ll let the CEO quotes here because they’re so asinine, on a technical level and human level. I have no idea how to comment these.
Newsrooms are strapped because media economy is nonfunctional and is not even designed to be self-sustainable in current economy and it is deeply future-vulnerable. And that’s media managers like Rinehart fault.
Perhaps they should’ve ran this article through an LLM aswell to at least try and hide the glaringly obvious bias.
Just give me the facts and let me make up my own mind about how I feel of something.
LLMs don’t create objectivity, so if you’re looking for “facts,” you’ll have to actually engage your brain.
I was facetiously suggesting they use one to hide the bias already baked into the article - not to add anything that isn’t there.
OP’s article is true. Did you accidentally click an Eli Yudkowsky article in your bookmarks?

That name is what initially put me off, but they actually seem to have some decent takes.
It is one of the better tech news sites out there. Their newsletter is very good and got these silly headlines that never fail to crack me up.
