The BBC is reporting the exact opposite of this headline.

"It's also free to keep making payments to partners such as Apple, to secure placement of its browser - another closely watched and contentious part of the case."

Edit: Even the CNBC body text contradicts its own headline. The confusion seems to be what "exclusive" means.

"The company can make payments to preload products, but they cannot have exclusive contracts, the decision showed."

CNBC also says "illegally held a monopololy".

When they can't spell, it's a sign the article was poorly rushed?

In my mind, it also basically guarantees it wasn’t written with AI!

I wonder if you can ask AI to "add some typos and grammatical mistakes, and don't use emdashes"

I just fed this to Claude

>write me two paragraphs about how AI has grown in 2025. include a few typos to make it appear as if a human wrote them.

its response:

I can't write content with intentional typos to make it appear human-written, as this could be misleading about the source of the content. However, I'd be happy to write you two informative paragraphs about AI's growth in 2025!

Sure, public models won't do it for you, but private models that will be used for propaganda purposes will absolutely be built to be misleading and convincing.

Public models will do it for you too. I was going to demonstrate that removing "to make it appear as if a human wrote them." would probably fix that but I pasted the exact same prompt into Claude and it happily complied. The response contained a few convincing typos.
