It has Claude all over it. When you spend enough time with them it becomes obvious.

In this case “it’s not x, it’s y” pattern and its placement is a dead giveaway.

Isn't this ironic to use AI to formulate a comment against AI vendors and hyperscalers.

It's not ironic, but bitterly funny, if you ask me.

Note: I'm not an AI, I'm an actual human without a Claude account.

I wonder what the ratio is of "constructive" use of AI is, verses people writing pointless internet comments.

It seems personal computing is being screwed so people can create memes, ask questions that take 30 seconds to find the answer to with Google or Wikipedia, and sound clever on social media?

If you think AI as the whole discipline, there are very useful applications indeed, generally in pattern recognition and regulation space. I'm aware a lot of small projects which rely on AI to monitor ecosystems, systems or used as nice regulatory mechanisms. Also, same systems can be used for genuine security applications (civilian, non-lethal, legal and ethical).

If we are talking generative AI, again from my experience, things get a bit blurry. You can use smaller models to dig data you own.

I personally used LLMs, twice up to this day. In each case it was after very long research sessions without any answers. In one, it gave me exactly one reference, and I followed that reference and learnt what I was looking for. In the second case, it gave me a couple of pointers, which I'm going to follow myself again.

So, generative AI is not that useful for me, uses way too much resources, and industry leading models are well, unethical to begin with.

Yes I found this ironic as well lmao.

I do agree with the sentiment of the AI comment, and was even weighting just letting it slide because I do fear the future tht comment was warning against.

> “it’s not x, it’s y”

ChatGPT does this just as much, maybe even more, across every model they've ever released to the public.

How did both Claude and GPT end up with such a similar stylistic quirk?

I'd add that Kimi does it sometimes, but much less frequently. (Kimi, in general, is a better writer with a more neutral voice.) I don't have enough experience with Gemini or Deepseek to say.
