As the author of potentially one of the "others I have seen" tweets about fantasy and AI, I have some thoughts on this. And all of this is with due respect to every Yahoo analyst, whom I deeply admire:
1. The fact that Yahoo has used these AI articles for weeks shows, to me, that they were preparing a runway for guys like Behrens and Del Don to be let go. Perhaps we should have all seen it coming.
2. Harmon and Pianow giving permission for Yahoo to aggregate their podcast into an AI article, even if it's with the intent of maximizing the reach, is a VERY slippery slope.
3. If I am in a place where I would like to read analysis on Jameson Williams instead of fire up a podcast, I would much rather that be from one of their people and the personal nuances that come with it
4. If Yahoo is going to invest in human fantasy creation, why not invest in the ones who already have the relationships and brand synergy that has helped bring in the audience?
5. I'm sure Behrens and Del Don thought "I'm not going anywhere" as recently as a few weeks or months ago
hey if anyone is curious about AI fantasy football articles...
