News Corp profits dive 75% as Rupert Murdoch-owned company hints at AI future
theguardian.com/media/2023/aug

Newscorpse is bleeding money on print and digital advertising, and seeks to cut costs by replacing people with a chat-bot they've been hoodwinked by techbros into believing is an artificial brain.

It remains to be seen whether the typical readership of Newscorpse has the intelligence to tell the difference between drivel created by humans or machines.

When asked about the outlook of using Generative AI to hallucinate articles about news, sports, weather, and politics, a Newscorpse spokesman sent us a photo of himself enthusiastically holding up three thumbs.

This is a news story which didn't get much traction in the , but it really struck me as important to understanding the situation in .

In August 2021, when US and soldiers ran a joint effort to evacuate personnel involved in the invasion, a group, / / , bombed the airport, murdering over a hundred people. The Taliban had wanted a peaceful withdrawal, but Daesh wanted mayhem.

@tzimmer_history Instead of trying to get the to discuss (which is real, pervasive, and seemingly intractable), maybe try to get them to discuss race (which is not real according to )?

I’m guessing the would be ‘off the charts’!

@jerry
I've noticed the is very oppositional to , generally speaking, and, despite the covfefe, is actually very supportive of . I think what's actually going on is a microcosm of a known issue with American news media, that, because drama gets them views, they tend to hype drama while quietly supporting the people who make it.

It's really bad for .

It also means that the , as a movement, has a bit of an uphill battle against them. We just need to keep chugging along and trying to find ways to get people to make accounts here and start posting, even if it's just copies of their Twitter posts. Having accurate news coverage would be helpful, but we don't necessarily need it to get people doing things. Back in the movement, we accomplished quite a lot, despite the hostile news industry purposefully misinforming people. I suspect this will be the same.

It can be frustrating, but News isn't reality: keep on posting.
