There may be several more of these paid-for puff pieces for Infosys, a.k.a. 'Microsoft India' (they do some of Microsoft's own operations). That's like 80% of what they published yesterday!
Summary: Infosys was mentioned and promoted in at least half a dozen 'articles' in MIT Technology Review yesterday (there may be more; the above is not exhaustive); days prior to that MIT Technology Review published a lot of Microsoft SPAM that helped distract from Microsoft's waves of layoffs, so this publication is clearly defunct (coverage 'on sale')
If someone (or someones) calls you paranoid for taking about "beacon"-like functionality, there will be no lack of authoritative citations (e.g. Web links) they can be provided to prove them wrong
There's no "anti-AI" (it's not even AI), there's opposition to fraud, to plagiarism, and to companies that profit more when there's global warning (caused in part by their business activities)
At least some people squeezed out some "free press" out of this charade [...] That the media kept boosting parodies as the alternative/s to the bigot is a topic we wrote about a great deal over the past 3 weeks
