OT but anyone else finds it ironic that we had multiple articles telling us how Forbes publishes AI generated articles way outside their expertise and still we're seeing Forbes articles regularly on HN?
Like, I know that apparently this one is a personal blog, but why does anyone even set up a blog at Forbes. Sometimes I wonder about this.
And actually, even when knowing it's a personal blog and me a serious, I cannot really take it serious anymore when seeing the Forbes URL. I am more inclined to skip chapters, to look for AI slop, and to not take the views of the author as independent. Not consciously, but subconsciously.
I don't even bother clicking on Forbes links anymore. Opinion pieces are fine but it seems like Forbes is entirely being used for the legacy of its name to make random blogs sound authoritative and respectable.
