The issue isn't whether AI is good or bad or neither or both. The issue is whether the author used AI or not. And you were actually the one who suggested that the author's alleged use of AI made the article less trustworthy. The only reason you mentioned it was to malign the author; you would never say, for example, "The author obviously used a spellchecker, which affects how trustworthy I find the article."

> If you think this is good writing then you're welcome to your opinion

I didn't say it's good writing. To the contrary, I said, "the writer just has a somewhat annoying blogging style, or lack of style."

The debate was never about the author's style but rather about the author's identity, i.e., human or machine.

Of course they do. I just pulled some off my shelves to look.

Not all textbooks do, but some definitely do.

Yes they absolutely do. What are you even talking about?
