Im actually very cpncerned people have yet to realize they dont need to put truth values on internet content.

Once you default to 'doesnt matter if true' you end up being a lot more even keeled.

There's a trust built up over years (in this case, decades) by a news organization. In this case, Ars Technica. I don't trust the rando on the internet, but I do trust a news organization that has proven over the course of decades to release factual information.

Now that Ars Technica has been caught and admitted to using AI-generated material in its stories, I now have to question that trust. A week ago, I wouldn't have had to.
