Of course the article sounds stupid, it's written by GPT too.

It's freaking MSN. Two weeks ago, they published an article describing a recently deceased basketball player as having become "useless" now.

That was a very "robot" point of view, I guess.

It's a direct reprint of a Reuters article. Which you would have seen had you just looked.

Apparently so.

I saw the source was Reuters, but didn't see it was unedited. I wonder what's the excuse for the dumb title then.

I mean it's not wrong. Except maybe fertiliser I guess.

Probably good ai hasn't made that connection yet.
