My son advised me yesterday that a large number of editorials on non-mainstream sites are now AI constructs. In other words, ChatGPT. He didn't go into any detail and I didn't think too much of it at the time. But, in the course of posting the "Publius" article below, I came across the following at its end:
"Article generated from corporate media reports."
Is the article an AI creation? Given what my son just said and the disclaimer at the article's conclusion, it wouldn't surprise me in the least. If my son is right, then there's likely to be a sharp uptick on the internet of what I'll call "flawed" articles. After all, an article generated from miscellaneous corporate reports relieves the author (what author? Is "Publius" even a person?) of any responsibility to vet his sources.
I think were headed or a dark future.
Just sayin'.

Diversity Hire Fire Chief Kristin Crowley Fired by Marxist LA Mayor Karen Bass After Public Criticism
by Publius
TheLibertyDaily.com
(Discern Report)—Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin Crowley was dismissed by Mayor Karen Bass on Friday shortly after she publicly criticized city leadership for insufficient funding of the fire department. The decision to fire Crowley came hours after she gave an interview to Fox LA where she highlighted the severe impact of a $17.6 million budget cut on the department’s emergency response capabilities, particularly in the context of preparing for large-scale events like wildfires.
Crowley had previously sent a memo to Mayor Bass on December 4, warning that the budget cuts would limit the department’s capacity to train for and respond to emergencies. Her public statements included a direct critique of the city’s failure to match the fire department’s growth with the city’s expansion, pointing out that despite the doubling of LA’s population since 1960, the number of fire stations has not kept pace.
The firing has sparked discussions regarding the prioritization of funding in public safety, especially as California faces increasing threats from wildfires. Critics argue that the budget cuts, pushed through by Mayor Bass, might have compromised the city’s ability to manage these threats effectively.
This incident has also highlighted broader issues of leadership and accountability in emergency services management, with Crowley’s dismissal seen by some as a response to her outspokenness rather than a reflection of her performance. The situation has left the Los Angeles community questioning the city’s preparedness for future crises, given the substantial cuts to the fire department’s operational budget.
Here’s the discussion earlier about Crowley’s statement:
