Ever since the recent revelation that Ars has used AI-hallucinated quotes in their articles, I have to wonder whether any of these quotes are AI-hallucinated, or if the piece itself is majority or minority AI generated.

If so, I have to ask: If you aren’t willing to take the time to write your own work, why should I take the time to read your work?

I didn’t have to worry about this even a week ago.

No, you didn’t realize you had to worry about this until a week ago.

Im actually very cpncerned people have yet to realize they dont need to put truth values on internet content.

Once you default to 'doesnt matter if true' you end up being a lot more even keeled.

There's a trust built up over years (in this case, decades) by a news organization. In this case, Ars Technica. I don't trust the rando on the internet, but I do trust a news organization that has proven over the course of decades to release factual information.

Now that Ars Technica has been caught and admitted to using AI-generated material in its stories, I now have to question that trust. A week ago, I wouldn't have had to.
