    Former Gizmodo writer Matías S. Zavia publicly mentioned the layoffs, which took place via video call on August 29, in a social media post.

    Earlier this summer, Gizmodo began publishing AI-generated articles in English without informing or involving its editorial staff.

    The stories were found to contain multiple factual inaccuracies, leading the Gizmodo union to criticize the practice as unethical.

    For Spanish-speaking audiences seeking news about science, technology, and Internet culture, the loss of original reporting from Gizmodo en Español is potentially a major blow.

    Subtle errors, mistranslations, and lack of cultural knowledge can impair the quality of automatically translated content.

    But with so many media companies chasing revenue through SEO manipulations and AI-written filler, it’s unlikely that we’ll see the end of this apparently cost-cutting AI trend soon.
