AI graph generation is not inherently problematic as long as the source data is reliable and the output is representative. These people are on a shoestring budget in a world where excitement over computer technology has dwindled as the industry has matured and other technologies have disrupted their wider use which impacts the site meaningfully. Even the founder of the site was given better pay as an employee at a large company so that says a fair bit.
Seemingly, Anand was falling under the spell of Apple for a long time before he left. It was evident in his coverage of their stuff. So, small wonder when his idol offered him a job that he took it.
Everyone has their bias, but I do agree that it was apparent his interest in Apple was leading publications to align with the company. That happened with Ian as well when he found himself enamored with Killer NICs while never understanding or bothering to learn enough about network packet flow to realize how pointless it was as a product. It happens to everyone, I would imagine, but the loss of Anand and the subsequent passing around of the leftovers that remain are another example of how some businesses are dependent on their founder.
Much respect to Ryan for carrying the weight. I hope that Anandtech can fight through this bad patch. It can also be an avenue for growth. YouTube perhaps.

"Graphs generated by DALL-E/OpenAI based on data from the SIA"Why?

Because it was fast and produced good results with minimal prompting.(I was as surprised as anyone by the results when Anton demoed this)

Do it the old-fashion way: Take 10-15 minutes to make the graphs. OR Take 1 minute to type some letters and numbers in ChatGPT and say make a graph.ballsystemlord - Friday, February 9, 2024 - link
