"This represents yet another alarming instance of the undermining of freedom of expression and arms-length arts funding from a major institution."

It is really something else how generative chatbots aren't an 'attack' on institutions like media or universities, but rather a case of executives, managers and decision makers willingly lifting up their organisations and throwing them hard into a woodchipper
