I heard about this first with VideoGamer. Apparently their recent review of a new game (RE9) was scraped and the "author" is not a real person. When you do a bit more digging, you find that websites are being bought out that have good traffic and everyone is being fired. They are then replaced with fake authors that are just AI generated. I remember seeing something about GQ doing this a few years ago and then trying to hide it.

I think this has likely spread outside of gaming and niche magazine sites. I am sure this is happening on mainstream news outlet sites too and I think it is a problem people need to pay attention to.

ASUS has stopped producing the NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti and 5060 Ti 16GB. They basically have them the "end of life" call and no other ones will be made. Because of the costs of RAM, they are reverting back to focusing on 8GB graphics cards. I have a feeling they won't be the only ones that do this. I would imagine as the prices stay inflated due to AI taking over, other brands will discontinue their more demanding cards. These are not old cards either, they are fairly new and in demand but because of memory shortages, they can't do much about it.
