When something (news) is, by nature, designed to inform you of the current state of reality, introducing any process that hallucinates (read: makes shit up) should not be anywhere near them.
People are free to use LLM plugins to “de-clickbait” headlines as they want, but keep that out of the news process itself.
It’s not all bad. Artifact uses “AI” to change clickbait titles into more descriptive ones for example.
Still a slippery-slope, IMO.

Just my 2 cents on it.
speaking even as an “ai” hater, even the worst LLM hallucination isn’t nearly as bad as purpose made clickbait
Slippery slope is a logical fallacy.
If people use clickbaity titles in the first place it’s cause they work, not because they don’t know how to write informative ones…
It’s for the Artifact users.
