My original, editorialized title: Ars Technica Sells Out

Linking to this because I know people here read Ars Technica, and I totally didn't become a subscriber three days before this was announced. Nope. No sir.

Conde Nast doesn't have an interest in driving away their readers, and AI bullshit absolutely will drive them away. They know this. Ken Fisher is the editorial lead for AI at Conde Nast (not just Ars), and said as much in the comment section.

AI is absolutely fucking things up on a grand scale in all sorts of industries, but as of right now, Ars is relatively safe and I don't think we need to inflate the scale of the danger.
