Today in headlines that would have made no sense five years ago.

This is bullshit. There's not even proof this was an autonomous agent 100% by itself, afaik. After this post, I don't even doubt the author itself might have been controlling this supposed agent.

> An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me

OK, so how do you know this publication was by an "AI"?

What a time to be alive

Can they influence nuclear energy or nuclear weapons by similar methods. I mean multiple seamingly unrelated directorted actions could lead to really bad results.

If the OP decided to sue for defamation and won, who or what would be legally liable? Has that ever been tested in court?

If this happened to me, my reflexive response would be "If you can't be bothered to write it, I can't be bothered to read it."

Life's too short to read AI slop generated by a one-sentence prompt somewhere.

how do you know it isn't staged

You mean someone asked an llm to publish a hit piece on you.
