“Young Chinese women have small fingers,” the article reads, “and that has made them a valuable contributor to iPhone production because they are more nimble at installing screws and other miniature parts in the small device, supply chain experts said.”
This 100% reads like LLM output; it’s confidently wrong, isn’t using proper news copy syntax, and got weirdly vague as it trailed off (“the small device”).
Yes. For example I know in textiles especially, they were small enough to run under & between machines to get things without the factory having to them off. (Surprise surprise, guess how kids got maimed and/or killed…)
We can’t claim that everything weird is written by AI, because there are weird human writers too. Although even if not AI, “experts claim” is such a dodgy source, that alone makes it untrustworthy.
Ah, NYT. Amongst all subscriptions that I have come across in my country, NYT is the most expensive. Since they haven’t heard of region specific pricing and just multiply by exchange rate; it’s only six times more expensive than YT Premium in India.
Atleast I was under the belief that they had decent editorial standards but looks like that ship has sailed away as well.
Huh, didn’t realize that NYT was disliked from before only. I thought it was a decent American newspaper. The only other American newspaper I can think of is Washington Post, but that is so capitalist friendly to say the least.
Among overseas newspapers, I had decent idea of UK based ones (looks and judges Sun readers :p) but not otherwise.

NYT is publishing AI articles.
Wasn’t this also the argument for child labor? “Small children can fit into tight spaces easier, lets use them to unjam dangerous machinery”
But the children yearn for the mines!
It’s all about the roboblox these days. The kids yearn for robots.
I know I did back in the 80s and 90s when I was a kid. Perfect example of a monkey paw wish, though, as fascists gonna fasc
The right watched snow piercer and needed therapy after see all the horrible things that the back of the train did to their betters.

Probably scrapped articles with “labor in Asia” to get this spat out

Boss I hate to be the one to tell you, but this is exactly what their editorial standards have always been lol

Yeah def what I was thinking. It’s strange that instead of admitting to this they’re just rolling with it saying it’s based off something they read.
