Three years after its pivot to AI, the writing is on the wall for BuzzFeed. The company said there's "substantial doubt" it can keep going.

        Good grief. Can you imagine an LLM trained on Buzzfeed’s content?

          That’s gotta be slop². That’s slop mastery. It would open up a whole new world of weapons grade slop.
