From the WaPo today: The 184 year old Cleveland Plain Dealer is now using AI to write selected articles. The paper which once employed 400, now employs 71. Another Turing Test, if you can't tell the difference, there is no difference.

^ Funny how that doesn't work with lab diamonds.

Our local paper had a writer named Lindsay who was terrible. She could barely form a sentence. No subject-object alignment whatsoever. I could always tell if she wrote a story without even looking at the by-line because I would nearly have a stroke trying to read it.

I don't support replacing people with AI but if the people can't be bothered to be capable at their jobs, I can see why companies would do it.
