MODERATORS
Oh look, another Tom's guide advertorial masking as original content...
I also suspect ArsTechnica of running sponsored AI stories these days.
They're all doing it. Most tech these days just isn't exciting enough to attract attention without them hyping it.
I would quite honestly be surprised, they have been vocal in the past about having no such thing.
Anyone who makes a living off of reviews is going to be suspect whether it's tech journals, youtubers, reddit shills, Amazon reviewers, review sites, etc. This is why I launched my own proprietary review methodology which I'm willing to share with others in my 16-week online course.
