I would be different is this was yet another free, race-to-the-bottom, corner-cutting web site.

But this is New York Times Cooking. It's a subscription product that people pay hundreds of dollars for.

If they want yet-another-AI-cooking web site, there are thousands launching each day. They pay the Times because they want something better.

It's like finding out that the high-end meal you paid for at a sit-down restaurant was just DoorDashed in from a ghost kitchen down the block.

Which is why this opt-in feature isn't a problem.

Which they get ... that hasn't changed at all.

It's nothing like that.

P.S. Slippery slope is a fallacy.
