Wages. They’re trying to use it to solve having to pay wages.

    OK, not disputing that, but that process has eff all to do with AI. Gen AI gave people a recognizable target, but automation was done using good old dumb algorithms for a long time before we taught computers to babble like a toddler. I was in the room for a ton of “can we automate all this QA” when machine learning was failing to tell a cat apart from a bycicle.

    Also, for your specific case I think Youtube and social media had a TON to do with the shifting standards of running a skeleton crew TV studio. Ditto for the press in general. Remember when copy editors were a thing?
