AI evangelists always say their tools will spark creativity and innovation but time and time again it only gets used to manipulate stuff that already exists. Make a dead person say new words, generate images of a famous person naked, etc

Totally creepy. Why do we need to cling to our sports announcers? Lifetime job unless you’re … and a drive deep into left field by Castellanos.

Any chance these folks are being paid their full rate? “Was compensated” is really vague
