#92When reached for comment on how this occurred, the journalist in question replied: “This is the perfect question that gets to the heart of this issue. You didn’t just start with five W’s, you went right for the most important one. Let’s examine why that question works so well in this instance…”
Would you like me to provide a brief summary of notable events in print media like this?

#93That's some crazy AI revenue right now

#94As people get comfortable with AI they'll get lazy and this will become common. A solution is to put someone extra into the workflow to check the final result. This way AI will actually make more jobs. Ha!
Welcome to a post-scarcity world — as if we needed cheaper ways to create digital low-quality content in the hands of anyone, for free. Not long after we invent a replicator machine the entire Earth is gonna be turned into paperclips.
This mostly harms written journalism. As people seek humanness in their media, they'll be driven even more into the dens of cult-leaders masquerading as podcaster-journalists. The media environment is becoming so terminally awful, and each year it keeps getting worse, for decades now.

#95Which raises the question: if everything is generated, why bother reading it at all? Just ask the LLM what you want to know—why treat headlines like bookmarks?
One interesting thing about the LLM era is it really highlights what things in life actually add value.

#97The same thing happened to German magazine Spiegel recently, see the correction remark at the end of this article https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unternehmen/deutsche-bahn-...
Fair play to them for owning up to their mistake, and not just pretending like it didn't happen!
They do not deserve a shred of recommendation. This is just damage control, pretending that it did not happen never was an option. Instead they tried to claim that it was just a one of mistake. What it really shows is that nobody even bothers to read their articles before hitting publish and that AI is widely used internally.

worse paid and less respected jobs, naturally

#99One of the great advantages of AI for non english native speakers is the ability of the tool to speak in better English than the writer. With so many young journalists graduating from school using AI instead of learning the full language, this use would become more frequent. At my work place, non native speakers would send me documents for grammatical corrections. They don’t do that anymore! Hoorah!
Great advantages for the writer . It's not a great advantage for the reader. The AI could completely change the meaning of the article and the author would be none the wiser.
I have found the AI does a better job than me at understanding what someone is saying.

#100Earlier quoted context omitted.
The AI is prompting the human here, so the title isn't strictly wrong. ;)
Gemini has been doing this to me for the past few weeks at the end of basically every single response now, and it often seems to result in the subsequent responses getting off track and lower quality as all these extra tangets start polluting the context. Not to mention how distracting it is as it throws off the reply I was already halfway in the middle of composing by the time I read it.
I think AI should present those continuation prompts as dynamic buttons, like "Summarize", "Yes, explain more" etc. based on the AI's last message, like the NPC conversation dialogs in some RPGs
