> This story is really old news. The Atlantic profiled this guy and his “research” last January and then MIT basically disavowed him in May. Multiple journalists on Substack covered this months ago, too…. As I read this story I thought I was having major deja-vu … even the photo is reused. Why is it being rerun now? Did something change?
