News sucks

[Swammerdami]

Sometimes something mediocre is what we want.

Yeah, nah.

Sometimes I am too tired to be bothered to complain about the mediocre.

Sometimes something mediocre is close enough to be good enough.

But something mediocre is never what I want, even when it's what I will settle for right now.

You seek to maximize quality and minimize flaws.
Businesses seek to maximize sales and minimize costs.

Businesses seek to maximize sales and minimize costs.

And consumers seek to maximise value for money. They'll often gladly settle for the mediocre if they get it for cheap.

Productivity is a nearsighted way to judge AI. Productivity is an inhuman way to judge humans.
If productivity is the only factor in it's use, then AI is inhuman and will always be suspect.
AI needs integrety. We need to be able to trust it, over it's productivity.

I like not having to waste my time kissing an artists ass

Sometimes we are impressed how dificult a task was.

Is it to keep people busy all day or is it wealth generation?

Do you think your ultimate 'wealth generation' will spread out to those who have no more work to do?
Even now, there are not enough jobs to provide eveyone with an income.

why not ban all technology and go back to us all being farmers, or hunter gatherers?

That is what your concept of AI will accoimplish.

The problem isn't that journalists are lazy. It's that their mission isn't to inform us. It's to terrify us. Scare us into clicking.

Their mission WAS to inform till FauxNews/Murdock came along. There is still a journalism award named for Edward R. Murrow.

I honestly don't care whether news is bot generated or not. What I care about is the quality. As long as it's honest and representative of reality the method by which it is produced is irrelevant to me

always more work than having a document generated and then proof reading it, and leads to a better end result.

The users of AI are just as lazy as you claim journalists are. They just chase clicks. and don't bother proofreading or editing their shit.

So naturally it started adding bullshit qualifications that was guaranteed to get her that job

Congratulations, AI produced an unqualified employee. This hurts your argument, not helps.
Students use AI to produce their written assignments. Does this help them, in the long run? No.

Art is internal motivation not external commission, it has mood, it conveys feeling.

I disagree. What I look for is the mood and feeling it gives me. The mood and feeling of the artist is just masterbation, not my business. And I realy don't want to know.
