		neilv on July 24, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: 77% of employees report AI has increased workloads... The headline is the clickbait, but the overwhelming argument of the article is an advertorial for outsourcing. (Also, a video keeps sliding in over the article: "Miley Cyrus Explains Why Growing With Her Audience Means So Much To Her".) Forbes seems to be garbage now, and maybe we shouldn't reward them by upvoting articles like this, even if the clickbait appeals (so people are going to want to comment without reading the article).

(why don't you use an adblocker and/or reader mode?)

I do use uBlock Origin. The video seemed to be 'content' of Forbes, which reflects upon Forbes more than whatever ads they run.

I don't use Firefox Reader Mode because (against all reasonable expectation) it bypasses the blocker, permitting tracking like crazy.
