With this particular essay, the AI summary ruins something very important about reading it for the first time. It’s a form of artistic vandalism
What the fuck, @NewYorker?
I was looking this essay up to teach it and ... why? Did you not already have a summary from 1996?? What are students supposed to think of this? That's it's okay to scrape, summarize, and get the main takeaway of a piece of writing without consent??

NEW: The Times’s Credit Crisis
A recent New York Times front-page feature on chemical plants in the Trump era had deep reporting, stark data visuals, and an uncanny resemblance to a smaller outlet’s earlier investigation. Was this a case of unacknowledged inspiration, a steroidal dose of Times exceptionalism, or sheer coincidence?

Notably, the @nytimes still hasn't posted the article to X! Above the fold, Sunday edition, nowhere on X. Makes you think :)
