There was a bulk re-dating of all federal government websites to game Google and make it seem like the new administration is doing more than it actually is:
Likely many mainstream news sources are using LLMs to summarize existing data sources and not actually reading them with a human, so ABC's crawlers pick up the new federal data, it's been re-datestamped to make it seem like it's dated Jan 24 2025, the AI naively reports it as being published last Monday, and then readers assume it's new reporting. Win-win for everyone involved, and completely useless as news.
