No AI: This is Why Your Radavist Membership Matters
 Kyle Klain and John were having a conversation yesterday, when Kyle shared some AI-generated slop from Women's Health magazine with John. Women's Health is owned by parent company Hearst Corporation. This entity made $13 billion in 2024, yet they have to use AI to generate imagery for a clickbait article claiming cycling is better for weight loss and fitness than walking...
