alt Hacker NewsHe was only slandered once, by the LLM Agent. The Ars Technica article had presented paraphrases that it falsely attributed as direct quotes, and was therefore factually incorrect reporting. But it was not defamatory by any reasonable standard. Slander isn't just a synonym of "lie".

I wasn’t using the word in a legal sense, poindexter. I didn’t pretend to be a lawyer either. Slander in the colloquial sense is whatever the person doesn’t want attributed to them and is often used as synonym for a lie.
Besides, I am sure you could tell it was just a joke but needed to be pedantic for no reason other than feel smart?
