  But either way, what would that achieve?

  Us being more acceptive of, and not belligerent to, AI written articles.

    The Nilay (the “author” of this article) at The Verge is heavily Anti-AI especially when it comes to article content — he doesn’t allow anyone at the company to use it except when they are writing an article about AI and even then only to demonstrate a point - e.g. “here’s an example of AI generated content”. It was also his decision to stop AI’s from crawling any content on their website.

    He used AI to pad the article because that’s what real spam articles do. It had nothing to do with acceptance.

      That was a stated goal, yes, but if that sort of tactic is done again and again, at some point, people will push back less against AI in reviews. Toad in a slow boiling pot sort of thing.

      Again, tongue-in-cheek. Don’t overanalyze it, no need to defend, I’m just stating that was a possibility in the back of my mind, but not most likely what’s really going on.

      Relax, everything is fine.
