amazing. There is a really scary lack of technological literacy in Ars Technica’s journalistic staff. The journalist in question separately gave a statement on social media in which he apologized and portrayed it as a terrible mistake, but it’s just not the kind of mistake that an ethical journalist can make, nor is it the kind of mistake that someone educated enough on AI to be writing about it in a journalistic setting can make.
If I were this guy’s editor, I am sorry to say that he would never work in journalism again.
