Sports Illustrated is Dead

This is a sad story of what used to be weekly staple reading/browsing growing up.

Magazines have been dead for a while but that’s a new level of dead

 

Disgusting. The deception part.

 

Does make Forde’s employment there even more hysterical at this point though.

 

He writes the bios for the AI authors and gets a cut from their clicks.

 

This is going to become more and more common, especially when the AI gets good enough that you will struggle to tell if it is human written or not.

Even now, all you need is an editor to fix a few small things.

 

I am not ok with making up a "fake" writer, bio, pic.

If the article is compiled ("written") by an AI, then put that in the byline. If you want to include "AI edited by Joe Blow" then say that.

Don't make shit up.
