There are more errors. Eve Online is 20 years old, not 18. He even lists 2003 as the release year. And Palia has been playable for a couple of months now, so it could have included far more information than that.

Whatever AI they used to write parts of this article must be trained on 2 years old data, where Shadowlands was the most recent expansion and where the 2003 release date of EVE would make it 18 years old, at least that's my hypothesis. The part about Palia is likely just lazy journalism, where the author didn't even do a basic search to check if the game actually came out, I mean they didn't even take the time to correct these incredibly obvious mistakes!

It's not AI-based. Articles like this are generally repeatedly republished with extremely minimal editing every six months or so to keep them 'fresh' for the search engine optimisation.
