I haven't read the story yet, but found it ironic that when I went to the site, a story about reading was locked behind a paywall that managed to leave the audio version of the story available to listen to instead.
- floatingtorch 1y agoIn the age of LLMs vacuuming up all content and deriving all the economic value from it, can you blame them?
- mNovak 1y agoSites like the New Yorker have had pay walls since before LLMs entered the scene, and moreover they purposely make their content available freely to those web crawlers that are supposedly robbing them (hence why archive links work).
- cantor_S_drug 1y agoThere are few youtube channels where host reads lot of publications on a particular current topic and gives his opinion summarizing the articles. This way news publications don't get monetary benefits but the youtube channel does. People who are just lazy to read will invariably gravitate to such methods of consuming news. I remember there was an article where one account was shared among the whole institution. It's exactly that but at a much wider scale. I expect crack down on fair use by such publications on those news channel.
- amanaplanacanal 1y agoI don't see how they can crack down on this. Summaries don't infringe copyright, from what I can tell.
- coliveira 1y agoI don't blame these people. I like to read things that matter; but reading news, especially the way they're badly written these days, is better avoided.
