i am so desperate for people to properly title articles about ai because as it stands i feel i am quite literally being clickbaited by them

i always think "oh boy a brief reprieve from the ai hellscape discourse" only to find myself stepping on the ai-enabled rake like I'm sideshow bob.

At this point I have to operate under the assumption that if the title of an article or blogpost isn't 100% clear its likely just yet another piece of AI slop trying its hardest to "not be like the other girls".

Same. I was hoping for a history of pocket depth in men and women's clothing and the factors that influenced it. Instead, AI.
Titling articles isn't about warning you.
Sentence uttered by person who apparently never had their English/whatever language teacher y'know...

teach you anything.

I very much remember being taught how to write titles for articles and papers -- both news and research -- through Grades 6-10 and so the idea of someone not having been taught this is actually a little odd to hear.

Nonetheless while I disagree with you I won't attempt to argue or debate you on this.

You should apply that big learn-y mind of yours to the policy around commenting. Don't be an asshole.
