Is the AI going to continue to churn "I'm offended" articles for Buzzfeed?

Yup.

Check this thread out where a podcaster decides to try to use chatGPT to create black author thinkpieces using a bingo card of ideas:

Some of the results are impressively bland and read *exactly* like modern thinkpieces. It's a great twitter thread that got me thinking and sent me down the rabbit hole of playing with chatGPT to have it argue with itself and produce commodity journalism (I use the term "commodity" to refer to things where the preference is towards bulk and frequency as opposed to quality). While there's some edges of the algorithms that show up and language patterns it really enjoys, it seems particularly adept at turning out bland as hell articles and thinkpieces.
