    So they aren’t even reviewing the AI slop they generate? I’m shocked! Ok not that shocked.

    Makes sense that it’s paywalled, how else would they pay for such good journalists and editors? 👍

    They distributed a magazine article by another entity. But they also didn’t review it to make sure it met their own editorial standards. They have changed their editorial process to include articles that are republished.
