They discovered that, in the last glacial period, Earth experienced its highest CO2 increase: 14 parts per million in just 55 years. Not, our planet experiences that increase every five years.
I have been noticing silly typos all over the place in articles for the last few years, but have no memory of those being common in the past. I guess editors proofreading articles isn’t really a thing anymore?
The editors are all gone now. Look at newspapers. No one is going to pay someone to check the work of the other guy you’re paying for that work, that’s like paying twice for the same job.
I’m going to hazard a guess it’s a combination of falling budget and an over reliance on autocorrect. If it’s like other industries, they’re trying to get more articles out with fewer people.
I know that I often have an atrocious number of typos - but some are entirely the fault of autocorrect either changing a correct word to something else or correcting a typo to a word that makes no sense in the context of the sentence. I’m hoping that the next generation will improve this.
If anything a now - not typo at least indicates that it was written by a human. LLM errors generally don’t involve that sort of thing.

It’s probably mostly AI-driven now. It sees the word ‘Not’ is spelled correctly, so it’s good to go.
Looks more like relying on spellcheck than AI.
Spell check was the first LLM.
By that standard, I’m pretty sure dictionaries were the first LLM. :-D

Everyone fired their editors in 2008.
I just read this as a “not” joke. As in, “yeah that was the fastest ever CO2 increase in earth’s history. Not”
