The fact that they resorted to writing crap these days with AI is what is making them lose relevance, not that they have been in the business for a long time, and have thousands upon thousands of articles.

CNET used to, perhaps not be cool, but it certainly was a place you'd go get tech news from every once in a while. Just imagine they were huge enough to buy download.com, back then, even! For a while, they were essentially *the* place you'd go for downloads of various shareware stuff.

Now, it's a ghost town of a site with AI-written junk.
