Wrong. "Here is a totally mind-blowing new thing AI will let you do this week that humanity could not do last week" is an endless source of novelty and eyeballs. Source: Am a publisher in this space and have seen the engagement numbers.

- jonathanyc 4y agoCould you make your post more substantive by e.g. sharing rough engagement numbers? Otherwise as an outsider this just reads as pretty mean-spirited. Sad because I am an Ars Technica fan, but can empathize with GP's point about AI coverage being repetitive and often over-hyping results.
