User safety is supposed to be tedious my man! That’s the “work” portion of operating a site whose only value is user interaction! You just decided that being irritated by user complaints is more material than the complaints themselves, because you’re two shitheads with a clubhouse.

A cop pinned this crash on Lacy with a negligent homicide charge despite their footage showing Lacy a football field behind the accident.

I feel bad about this so let me clarify - this Daily Beast piece isn’t A.I. just because it made a weird stylistic choice in the headline. It probably isn’t! But including a subject’s age when you introduce them rather than when you quote them is an “error” that generative text routinely makes.
Putting the subject’s age in the headline is a dead giveaway of A.I.
