The Trump administration reversed a Biden-era ban on antipersonnel land mines except on the Korean Peninsula.
The memo, signed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, says the reversal would give the U.S. military a “force multiplier” against enemies.

This is always the plan — they know the slop is slop so they will hire the original humans back at a cut rate to be slop wranglers, which involves more work and worse outcomes.
If they want to keep getting work, they can review (=rewrite) the AI slop, for 1/3 of their normal rate (which was already low to begin with)
Readers, we HAVE to complain about it, hold the publishers accountable and boycott these books

They're *wrong*: invasive species are one of the worst HUMAN impacts.
