Beware of AI garbage in the tabloid media

Recently, a tabloid media outlet published a guest article by an author who lists “Deloitte Legal” in his name under the title “Shrinkflation in salmon is considered misleading—shouldn't the same apply to homeopathy?” 

Recently, a tabloid media outlet published a guest article by an author who lists “Deloitte Legal” in his name under the title “Shrinkflation in salmon is considered misleading—shouldn't the same apply to homeopathy?” It contains sentences such as “Perhaps salmon could also serve as a raw material for a homeopathic remedy – perhaps to protect against injuries from fishing hooks and nets and frostbite?” Attentive readers may experience a sense of déjà vu, recalling a report in the same tabloid media outlet entitled “AI garbage: Deloitte must return money to Australia because report was full of AI hallucinations” (the presumption of innocence applies). As a second déjà vu, the guest article is reminiscent of the AI garbage just quoted and, for the informed reader, evokes associations with a minister's doctoral thesis, which contains meaningless sentences such as “Assumptions are like barnacles on the side of a boat; they slow us down.” The fact that the guest author admits his ignorance about the carrier medium in homeopathic medicines places him seamlessly among the large number of fanatical critics of homeopathy. Conclusion: AI cannot replace reading and learning.
