As a common man someone who hates what journalism has become: I hope "AI" swiftly replaces your industry which has become a cancer and plague upon society. I would rather deal with a used car salesman than a journalist.

Journalists today only provide unnecessary exposition and emotional poetry (read: wasting my reading time) and actively cause more problems and conflicts in society than they address and resolve (sensationalism and fearmongering is what brings in the clicks and thus the money).

I have no sympathy whatsoever for such a rotten, morally devoid, worthless industry, and while I doubt "AI" will bring about any fundamental difference or improvement it will at least make the process of journalism better reflect the actual value of the final product.

I think you might be reading the wrong journalistic publications.
You are commenting on an article written by a journalist. :)
In case it wasn't obvious, I didn't bother reading or even clicking on the article. Not the least because it comes from the cesspool known as Forbes, of all places.
Was going to say the same thing "as a common woman" about the SV turbo-capitalist mindplague that's swept across the world!
