    I wonder how far you can push this? Like there was a whole subreddit (can’t remember the name) that was dedicated to news that seems positive on the surface but is actually fucked up when you take 2 seconds to think. Could you just get chatgpt to come up with a way to positively frame the worst shit specifically to bait adds next to it?

      Isn’t it just the majority of posts in r/upliftingnews ? Their news is like “Child working 24/7 in construction site get enough Kickstarter donations to pay for his mother’s cancer treatment”

      As a single mom, it’s hard for me to be proactive about my kids’ health, but I have to say that Cerave cream has been a GODSEND for treating the scratches and blisters they get at work.
