Who needs AI?

For i=1 to 3000
   fetchRedditStory()
   getTopComments()
   if (hasImmigration() or hasWelfare() or hasIndigenous())
     includeOutrage()
   postShitStory()
Next

Reddit "experts" and newscorp "journalists" are a match made in heaven.

AI is great at producing the shit story. With tools like gpt you can even ask it to be more outrage inducing and it will do it!
