Like many of my longtime colleagues, last Friday was my last day at CNET. It was an incredible place to work, and I'm grateful to have been there for so long. So many kind, funny and truly talented people have worked there, and so many still do.

Cnet uses AI to create content: This is a journalistic scandal. Buzzfeed uses AI to create content: People are excited for the content to finally become readable. Moral of the story: The AI revolution will benefit low-standard news outlets? 🤡

I will not let my baby be reduced to a fucking number. This is my son, Lakotah. He was 31-yrs-old. He was loved and treasured by many. He was a father, a son, a grandson. He was funny, and generous, and smart as hell. He is missed beyond all reason 💔
