I'll definitely support a worker-owned magazine. Subscription begun!
Exciting news! Thanks to our sale, we've rocketed all the way up to over 4,900 paying subscribers. This means we can cross another goal, a regular columnist, off our list. We plan to sort out the exact specifics in our own time, but for now, who do you think would be a good fit?

So, a Wisconsin supreme court justice may have used an LLM to write a brief, and didn't check the cites. Countless attorneys have been sanctioned for doing this; she should face a similar inquiry.
