"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Mate, it's opening the article with a rule of three, followed by an emdash and a conclusion, it features a weirdly Cased title, repeatedly uses italics in weird places and quotes an unusual amount of things.

I use emdashes, sparingly, in my own writing. Hooray, now people mistrust me for doing that.
I'm not saying using any Emdash at all is a surefire tell that stuff is written by AI. but the Way the article opens, it's a juxtaposition of key signs of AI writing.
As they should.
