SI caught posting AI as humans

[DanOregon]

I posted in the "layoffs" thread - since SI seems to have "laid off" on being a reputable publication.

Can we agree to not have a SI Sportsman of the Year thread this year?

Much as I hate to see another sj.com tradition unlike any other go by the wayside, yeah.

Maybe Elmo will buy SI and kill it, too.

Love the disclaimer at the end of the story: "Editor's note: We're in bed with this company too, but at least we're actually writing our own content, and none of it shows up on this site." You can run, but you can't hide from AI.

The "C Suite shuffle" talk is kind of funny to me. This isn't a very big company, or a large media conglomerate, the way their stuff paints themselves. In the case of SI, they are licensing the name from a branding company that bought it for a fraction of what it once was worth, and they are trying to squeeze whatever money they can out of the name (i.e. -- bludgeoning it) at as little cost as possible.
