Then I wrote about it.

Like many of my longtime colleagues, last Friday was my last day at CNET. It was an incredible place to work, and I'm grateful to have been there for so long.
So many kind, funny and truly talented people have worked there, and so many still do.

Laura is a thoughtful and resourceful reporter able to dig into the real story, and illustrate it with great anecdotes and reporting. Hire her.
I'm one of the folks laid off from CNET this week. Very sad to part ways with this wonderful team and grateful for the many opportunities I had to grow as a reporter over the past 7+ years. Here's to seeing what's next

Cnet uses AI to create content: This is a journalistic scandal.
Buzzfeed uses AI to create content: People are excited for the content to finally become readable.
Moral of the story: The AI revolution will benefit low-standard news outlets? 🤡

Our work with a custom AI tool for some CNET Money basic explainers, which the team started publishing in November, has prompted a lot of discussion this month. We said we’d share our early learnings from our review, including our mistakes. Here they are. cnet.co/3kJw9Pz

I will not let my baby be reduced to a fucking number. This is my son, Lakotah. He was 31-yrs-old. He was loved and treasured by many. He was a father, a son, a grandson. He was funny, and generous, and smart as hell. He is missed beyond all reason 💔
