AI is cheaper than employees, plus you get to ride the hype train!

Yeah I'm surprised there's not more talk here about the likelihood they are speculatively investing in AI to see how viable it will be to replace employees with, if they haven't already been able to do so. Seems among other industries, we're on our way to journalistic AI slop and fake film actors, in the spirit of 1984.

You can't make the line go up by investing in something that makes more sales even less likely.
