For everyone's sake, I hope you're correct. A quick scan of the article's comment section is enough to seriously curb one's optimism, though. I don't know what the demographic makeup of participants in WSJ's comment threads is, but the views expressed are surprisingly homogenous in both substance and tone.

I like to challenge myself with a little "game" in which I attempt to guess the most commonly expressed opinions in WSJ comments based solely on the parent article title; it isn't a particularly difficult game.



I used to work IT at a newspaper.

98% of the comments were made by a handful of super-posters, and that was before AI hit the world.
