I would blanket not trust anything from “HR News” and just go somewhere else to find that information. One of their blogs posted here about a month ago was titled something like “Study finds 15% of Reddit content is generated by bots” or whatever.
The catch is that they only say the year and the journal. No hyperlink, no identifier, no author names, no volume + issue, no name of the artcle. After exhausting every article from that journal that year and keyword searching the fuck out of it just in case they were stupid and got the year or journal wrong, the inevitable conclusion is either that HR News is LLM slop with zero fact-checking or that it’s written by a human author who will uncritically regurgitate made-up shit they read elsewhere. I’d link you to the discussion, but the post was removed – almost certainly because it was proved to be misinformation.
Yeah, the EPI is a source that I trust to carry its bias and a regard for factual accuracy at the same time. I think it’s going to be a good read; thanks!

I’ll change the link to their source. Perhaps that will be better.

Thanks for getting up to speed on HR News.
