Let us filter AI slop, you cowards

It’s almost impossible to avoid seeing AI-generated content online, but it doesn’t have to be this way. YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and more have ramped up content authentication efforts over the last year, with many now automatically applying labels to distinguish AI-generated images, videos, and music from those made by real, human creators.

Marathon’s second season is a chance for Bungie to turn things around

Earlier this month, I finally achieved the elusive goal I had set for myself in Bungie’s Marathon.
