A snippet from a New York Times article shared on tumblr. It says:
“Most experts acknowledge that a takeover by artificial intelligence is coming for the video game industry within the next five years, and executives have already started preparing to restructure their companies in anticipation. After all, it was one of the first sectors to deploy A.I. programming in the 1980s, with the four ghosts who chase Pac-Man each responding differently to the player’s real-time movements.”.
The post has the caption: “Is this seriously the level of journalism the NYT now tolerates.”
It’s always such a red flag in news articles when they mention vague “experts” but don’t explain who they are. The Guardian is so bad for it, even though they’re the most tolerable of the mainstream British options. A lot of the age verification stuff was a vague “experts say this will help” but if you dig deeper the experts end up being someone who’s went from working as an MP to being appointed to some directorship of a charity, and not someone with technical skills that could explain the cybersecurity issues, easy circumventing via VPN etc.
