OK, wait a second. YouTube is the world’s largest video streamer. It is also the world’s largest music streamer. It wants us to pay for a subscription that will drop ads—but not on music videos. Make it make sense. arstechnica.com/google/2025/...

Even bad journalism is based on generating and synthesizing new information. Large language models are based on the statistically likely next word based on previous information. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/20/b...
