The Smithsonian is rehashing a press release on available tourist train choices in Italy? Couldn't they spend some more effort, like an examination of one of the historical trains?
Sadly, in the era of non-existent budgets this is what counts for journalism. It might even be that it was just LLM generated and then just touched up.
True, and it's mostly a rehash of an already released CNN article. But I don't like that the Smithsonian wants to be a general news service. Their a museum group. But the reduction to being general news/click bait seems to infectious.
