    So are the reporters at Associated Press. The capital class has decided that workers are superfluous, and product quality doesn't matter, and they just need to hold onto the money they have already collected and there is no need for it to flow downhill.

      From reading this article, the headline actually seems to undersell where the evidence leads a bit (a refreshing departure from the usual clickbait trends nowadays):

      > OpenAI’s super PAC appears to be using AI, perhaps OpenAI’s very own models, to churn out content that advances its political interests and discredits its opponents. Worse yet, Acutus is blatantly lying about that fact, calling the articles it publishes “expert-sourced” and its reporting “independent journalism.” This seems like exactly the sort of AI-driven political influence campaign that OpenAI once considered a major risk category, and still prohibits in its usage policies to this day.

      AI being used for reporting is one thing, but using it that as a vehicle to work with political consultants to launder specific policy views masqueraded as journalism is another.

      Look, if something doesn't serve me perfectly then it doesn't deserve to exist.

      Claude Code is perfect for me so everything must work towards its continued existence.
