You're ignoring the "or" which is doing a lot of work.

Anthropic's position is seemingly that it was "another part of the publishing process [that] was compromised"

Yes, I will say it's a high-AI-trust approach. I can see this being adopted by people like Anthropic who already don't read the code. Personally I'm still trying to get my company to add AI review to MRs :(

But lets not beat about the bush. Lets have the careers argument.

> Teaching without tenure is gig work, not a career.

Teaching without tenure is... teaching. Secondary school teachers don't have tenure. I find it hard to describe secondary school teaching as gig work.
