He's not some junior developer with his first job, he's the senior editor. If a senior editor plagiarized an article, he would rightly be fired because it's a serious violation of journalistic ethics. He knew using AI tools like that was against company policy and he did it anyway. That's well beyond just making a mistake.
There are degrees of plagiarism and you could argue this is not really plagiarism at all. Paraphrasing instead of directly quoting is probably about as mild as it can get. Most publications wouldn’t even note the mistake.
This wasn't paraphrasing either. The tool couldn't access the subject's website and instead fabricated quotes, which Benj nor anyone in the editorial process bothered to vet.
The story is called "The Big Hack" and was run by Bloomberg in 2018. All the major companies named in the story conducted investigations and never found anything, but the story was never retracted.
This would still have tactile feedback because you would still be playing a piano. Imagine things like scales being overlaid in a different color where your fingers are supposed to go. Maybe if you hit the wrong key it would flash red. There's all kinds of things you could do.
Ah, so you want this for lessons on a real piano? That seems oddly specific. Far cheaper to get one that has midi capabilities and use any of a number of great apps out there.
I grant that if you can afford a full size piano, you probably don't balk at this thing, though.
