Tech journalist Taylor Lorenz says she's once again being offered significant money to promote anti-AI content. Screenshots show a paid collab pitch from a tech founder behind the #HellWithAI campaign, which claims AI is a stock bubble threatening humanity, has already "killed 500,000+ jobs," and prescribes refusing AI products, AI customer support, AI tool payments, and AI slop content.
The founder says he knows anti-AI stances may kill his own VC prospects. Lorenz previously made a video on billionaire-funded anti-AI content, and this confirms real money flows behind such campaigns.
