The C-suite shuffle comes just over a week after a Futurism report revealed that Sports Illustrated and Arena Group-owned finance site TheStreet had been publishing affiliate link-laden commerce articles under the bylines of fake writers. Sources close to the creation of that fake author-bylined content told Futurism that the text itself was AI-generated, and published without proper automation disclosures. For their part, The Arena Group claimed that the third-party content provider that created the posts, AdVon Commerce, used fake authors as simple “pen names” for real people, and that no AI was used. Sure!
