“Former NBA participant Brandon Hunter, who beforehand performed for the Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic, has handed away on the age of 42, as introduced by Ohio males’s basketball coach Jeff Boals on Tuesday. Hunter, initially a extremely regarded highschool basketball participant in Cincinnati, achieved vital success as a ahead for the Bobcats. He earned three first-team All-MAC convention alternatives and led the NCAA in rebounding throughout his senior season.”

“Hunter’s expertise led to his choice because the 56th general decide within the 2003 NBA Draft.
Throughout his NBA profession, he performed in 67 video games over two seasons and achieved a career-high of 17 factors in a recreation in opposition to the Milwaukee Bucks in 2004,” reports an apparent AI in an article that was yanked from MSN.com’s “community channel” called “Race Track.”

Like with Yahoo News, MSN is kind of a relic from the pre-social media age, an aggregator that reprints stories from other outlets – for example the home page’s top story is Bloomberg’s “Supreme Court Pauses Curbs on Biden Social Media Contacts” and there’s a Wall Street Journal article about Hunter Biden and so on and so forth. It’s not clear what the criteria qualifies a site as an MSN news “partner” but obviously it’s not too high since they carry The Hill, Mediaite, and RawStory articles.

And this “Race Track” AI nonsense. Now the channel’s page has a Portuguese URL that doesn’t lead to any site at all, which maybe kind of raises the possibility this was just a bad translation job. Really fucking bad, considerably worse and more awkward than Google Translate was 10 years ago. In what overly literal translation from a foreign language to English could “dead” become “useless”?
