  • (Beaverton) ChatGPT user delighted to combine sloth with theft

    From James Nicoll@21:1/5 to All on Sat May 24 16:03:37 2025
    Friends encouraged me to apply to the Beaverton, a Canadian satirical
    website (and podcast), which I did in the sense of leaving it to the
    last minute, then firing off a hasty and probably not proofread sample
    of my talents, such as they are. Inexplicably they wanted more work from
    me, of this very, very slightly SF relevent piece is the first.

    WATERLOO, ON A local self-published "author", Chaz Wolverton, 25,
    is extolling the brighter side of plagiarism engines like ChatGPT and Grok.
