The never ending stream of articles of the form “Person with association to $topic has opinions on $topic” are exhausting and very seldom informative.<p>Zooming out any distance at all and it seems like most mainstream journalism is indistinguishable from mad libs.
"We spoke with <i>50</i> people who work with AI about what keeps them up a night, then took the craziest 5, embellished the stories (artistic license, y'know), then wrote a click-bait listicle about it."
While I appreciate the NYT trying to be creative with the way they present their content, the structure of this piece pisses me off.<p>Sometimes (often), an easily navigable wall of text with quality, descriptive subtitles is best. For me, at least...
