alt Hacker NewsDefinitely AI written, though it got the point across and it wasn't terrible to read and it was new information to me so I was glad to read it.
At this point what news site isn't AI written? Except for the few remaining human blogs (which are a delight and a pleasure). Why I detected AI: it said "The honest footnote.." at the end. That's how Claude always ends our long-rambling discussions.

The mainstream ones that pay journalists, for the most part.
These little internet blogs love AI because they’re usually content farms. They want maximum traffic for minimum effort invested.
Lots of news sites aren't AI written; or if AI is involved, it's not as blatant as in this article. The 'papers of record' largely remain AI-free. You increasingly have to pay for good journalism.

The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, The Atlantic, NPR, BBC, The Verge, The Economist. That's just off the top of my head. Basically none of the reputable papers will touch AI.
(I guess I have to add an "as far as we know" footnote but I'd be truly shocked if The New York Times was secretly using AI.)
