    But most I take exception to an article positing itself as factually

    Where did it do that? The author writes in first person throughout, it is clearly an opinion piece.

      Because this article is posited (with its title and the little blurb at the top about the author) to be about the safety of AI. The author doesn’t talk about what safety regulations there are. They don’t talk about what safety apparatus are being proposed or which ones have already been developed. There’s no conclusion here.

      When you read a newspaper, generally there is a section for opinion pieces and editorials. There are several groups trying to push for clear and concise labeling of editorial, opinion pieces, and news pieces specifically because there’s so much misinformation going around.

      But really. What is the point of posting an opinion piece to a community where we share tech news, when it’s not even valuable in its opinions? What is there to discuss here? That shareholders and consumers should view AI safety legislation or safety protocols differently because they affect those two parties differently? We already knew that.
