I’m not dunking on their writers, just how Al and AI look the same in most fonts.

    I’ve always looked at this in the other direction. Offer services “powered by Al” and as long as you have some dude named Al involved you don’t have to waste time and energy on AI.

    Your title honestly had me puzzled until I read the rest of the post. On my end it really did look like you were suggesting Al Jazeera rebrand as “Al Jazeera” and I was stumped on what the difference was.

    This is why I prefer sans-serif fonts that have lower case l’s with a little bend on the bottom. For example the new default font in Office (Aptos) does exactly that.

    The Israeli government recently got found out for using AI to help plan the current conflict. There’s a story in the world news community about it.

      That’s true (I saw/read the posts). I’m just trying to not bring geopolitical stuff into everything.

            Just thought it was the silliest way to be geopolitical sarcastically.

            Of course, Poe’s Law will always kick in.

    Makes no difference if it’s AI or Al. I avoid news from them.

      They’re not great in that they’re still western propaganda, but they’re 100x better than CNN/MSNBC/Fox.

        Al Jazeera is the Qatar government. Not sure I have ever heard anybody classify Qatar as western before.

        Huh.
