    Wouldn’t it have been easier for NYTimes to use in the title: “Caterpillar” instead of: “a Major Company” ?

    I don’t understand that was left out of the title. It’s almost a form of obfuscation that shields said company.

      Can’t get clicks without bait. Next they’ll be adding “You’ll never believe who it is!”

        I found the most moral use of AI using Artifact as my news app. There is a feature where you can “Mark as clickbait” an article’s title and it reads the article to generate a new title that actually is relevant to the content of the article. I think the devs have stopped development of the app though.

      I think because this is more about exposing corruption in the DoJ than an expose about Caterpillar. Not mentioning the company in the headline can inform you that the heart of the article is the DoJ so that you’re coming into it with the right context.
