1) the person is either too lazy to write themselves anymore, when AI can do it in 15 sec after being provided 1 sentence of input, or they adopted a mindset of "bro, if I spent 2 hours writing it, my competitors already generated 50 articles in that time" (or the other variant - "bro, while those fools spend 2 hours to write an article, I'll be churning 50 using AI")

2) They are still, in whatever way, beholden to legacy metrics such as number of words, avg reading time, length of content to allow multiple ad insertion "slots" etc...

Just the other day, my boss was bragging about how he sent a huge email to the client, with ALL the details, written with AI in 3 min, just before a call with them, only for the client on the other side to respond with "oh yeah, I've used AI to summarise it and went through it just now". (Boss considered it rude, of course)

Jason Meller was the former CEO of Kolide, which 1Password bought. I doubt he's beholden to anything like word count requirements. There is human written text in here, but it's not all human written -- and odds are since this is basically an ad for 1Password's enterprise security offerings that this is mostly intended as marketing, not as a substantive article.

Author here, I did use AI to write this which is unusual for me. The reason was I organically discovered the malware myself while doing other research on OpenClaw. I used AI for primarily speed, I wanted to get the word out on this problem. The other challenge was I had a lot of specific information that was unsafe to share generally (links to the malware, URLs, how the payload worked) and I needed help generalizing it so it could be both safe and easily understood by others.

I very much enjoy writing, but this was a case where I felt that if my writing came off overly-AI it was worth it for the reasons I mentioned above.

I'll continue to explore how to integrate AI into my writing which is usually pretty substantive. All the info was primarily sourced from my investigation.
