The community has a clear ask

Nope. It's a request. The only thing I want to know from people suing salesbro jargon is the price on this used Buick.

There’s some irony about distrust of AI use being right near the top… in an article that was very obviously written by GPT with no effort made to hide the tells and put it in a human voice.

I'm curious what makes you think it was AI generated?

Was it inspired writing? No. But it was more coherrent than a lot of what people post on the internet.

The spacing of the bolded words and phrases, the placement of bullet points, the choice of what got bulleted, the arrangement of authoritative and supporting statements, and the overall flow of the article.

Spend enough time around GPT, and you see that that’s the default output format if you throw some stats and a loose writing goal at it.

GPT writes pretty coherent stuff these days. The irony was just that it was LLM generated.

Yes, agree.

Specifically, ChatGPT-flavoured slop on this article

Add overuse of structural, genuine, and that annoying “and here’s where things get interesting” fluff that you’d expect to hear in an old timey academic or business presentations.
