Social science: Why does the humanities use so much jargon. Just say what you mean!

Yes, the scale and skills needed often surpass typical social science projects. But with more infrastructure initiatives launching, I’m optimistic this will change. While many (like me) enjoy the tech aspects, I'm sure many want to focus on fundamental/applied questions, not the engineering..

That a dude with a couple cameras and a plate of appetizers can make something worth $82.5 million and a media company looks at that and goes "couldn't we make even more money if we had AI do it?" tells you exactly how stupid these people are
The $82.5 million sale of "Hot Ones" studio First We Feast is part of a broader strategy at BuzzFeed to shift away from human editors, writers and content producers in favor of artificial intelligence, which result in "high-margin, tech-enabled revenue lines."
BuzzFeed sells "Hot Ones" studio for $82.5 million as it pursues more AI-driven content
The company said the sale will allow it to depend less on human-created content in favor of "high-margin, tech-enabled revenue lines."
