The author of that piece outsources his thinking to the slop machine.
If anyone wants to read the discussion by the most pedantic nerds on Earth (complimentary), it starts here.
He does, but also that piece is based on talking to the WMF employees, who he knows, and multiple of said employees have forwarded the piece to me.
It checks out as a good source.
it doesn't mean he's not inaccurate in that particular piece.
No, but it does seem important to point out before anyone starts trying to parse the exact words line-by-line or otherwise give more attention to the details than it deserves.
And anyone who describes admitting to AI use as "coming out of the AI closet" deserves to be publicly shamed.
yes, but (i've corrected my bloody typo above), there are independent confirmations of veracity. so i think it's fine to complain here, but it would detract from the point outside the sneering area.
ah thanks for informing
