A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

No, I understand what you mean and to that point yes you're right I shouldn't hold the employees of the Chicago Sun-Times accountable for using AI slop in their paper.
But that's just not the way my - or anyone's - mind processes it. "The Chicago Sun-Times" for all intents and purposes is a monolith which produces a newspaper. "They" made a very unfortunate decision to allow AI content in that paper. It has damaged their reputation.
So next time I see "Chicago Sun-Times" I won't be thinking about the person who does the layouts or the regional sales person or any of that, I'll be thinking "oh yeah, they got bitten hard by a stupid decision to allow AI slop in their paper".
