This is exactally it.

It’s puff pieces like this too. Are we supposed to pat them on the back, give them our loyalty, because they are not using the latest technique?

The piece is pretty much we don’t use AI, go on our social media and lap up our human made mascot.

Short story is they tried AI, they jumped to the next option, hating AI, they used data to analyse these techniques and then make an article to promote this. All to sell cookies.

It feels like a constant battle to keep the manipulation away.
