Red Ventures has wasted no time in hitting its tech news site CNET with another round of brutal layoffs, following the revelation that it had been very quietly publishing AI-generated articles for months starting late last year.But in the wake of enormous controversy and its latest culling of CNET's workforce, Red Ventures says the layoffs - which according to The Verge affect some ten percent of its remaining workforce - actually have nothing to do with its pivot to AI.
"Today's decision was not a reflection of the value or performance of our team members, the use of emerging technologies, or our confidence in the CNET Group's future," a CNET spokesperson told Variety, after ignoring our request for comment.
