      AI produces cookie-cutter bullshit.

      That said, at least for the time being, it gets down to brass tacks in the first paragraph or so. I guess they haven’t felt the need to keep your eyes on the page longer.

      Capitalist enshitifed journalism is the reason they’re ‘starving’ for readers. You can’t find a meat-created news article or a fucking recipe without sifting through 10 pages of hyperbole and nostalgia.

      Bring back the fucking newspaper article format where every word cost somebody money. Spend the money on paying someone to make sure the news is right and condense it into an article where your primary goal is conveying exactly what’s going on with a close fucking second goal of not wasting everyone’s time.

      Seems super common in reporting as well, I am noting it with basically every NPR news story these days. LLM’s love outputting this format as well. Almost the same thing that is happening with most media, people are so unfocused that you have to repeat things 20 different ways for them to remember, and the lack of actual journalism means they need to fill time with the ‘big stories’.

        You mean like Netflix making shows “second-screen” friendly? I doubt lack of focus ever really drove longer articles. It pushes them shorter and more towards bulleted lists and headlines only if anything.

        [Insert ad here. Lol.]

        Padding out the paragraph count just gives more spots for ads in between or more eyeball time for banner ads, and even if a site isn’t explicitly going for that, all the journalists (real or not) and LLMs are just trained to only write that way now.

      It’s not AI. Axios used this format for years, going back to Trump’s first term.

      The original pitch was real, sourced journalism in a more concise format, to compete with Twitter and such.

      I like that (hence I’ve read Axios for years), but I do get annoyed by the lack of detail, sometimes.

    Can’t be fired but can’t be trusted either. I’m sure he’s smart but if you’re going to have an affair as the head of an industry the US desperately wants to keep away from the Chinese, maybe don’t have one with a Chinese national? And certainly not a Chinese national that is the head of a Chinese company that wants the technology the US desperately wants to keep them from having.

    Shout out to the book Red Tide by M. P. Woodward. It’s a military thriller where one of the main plot points is a Chinese spy seducing the son of the CEO of a semiconductor manufacturer, in order to export AI chips to China. The book was published last year. The author worked in naval intelligence, so I guess there may have been rumors about this scenario before…
