For the headline-only readers, this is satirical

Yep if you didn't tell me I'd be confused.

It's too real to be satire. Too well written to be AI. It has no click bait or exaggerations so it's not journalism. And a few names and places dropped, so it could be marketing for the research center.

But is it also marketing?
