The white male NYT editor upset he didn't get a promotion is also a delusional AI user selling his AI "art" [View all]

LBN story on Trump's EEOC suing the NYT because this jerk didn't get promoted and thinks he was discriminated against for being white and male:

I just saw this on Bluesky, from journalist Gillian Brockell:

Bryant Rousseau, named in this story as the NYT editor whose work history matches the anonymous coward in the complaint, is selling AI-generated art and music on his website.

The copyright watermarks on work he didn’t do — with fake NYT quotes! — is just chef’s kiss narcissistic entitlement.

And if you click on the bplane post that Brockell quote-posted above you'll find more of that poor discriminated-against white male's AI slop in the replies:

There's a lot to unpack in there.
