I got the exact same uncanny valley feel from the text. Great article, though. Some people just don't have great writing skills and need a leg up, so I think it's totally excusable to use AI to help you write something. Writing up a little pet project like this is super valuable and I'd hate it to only exist on the author's system because they didn't enjoy writing or didn't feel good at it.

Glad to know that I wasn't alone with my feeling!
