The passport is real, this style of book will be a limited-edition option when you renew.

The article, though, is AI slop.

The author is a macro economy writer with a 10 years old Twitter account. Most of the article is a quote, then his personal opinion. https://mishtalk.com/about/ I'm all for calling out automated content written by AI/LLM but this one doesn't seem to be.

The quote absolutely reads like AI slop.

Its entirely possible they still used some sort of AI to either transcript or edit their content tho, even if personally dictated by them etc. At which point slop becomes human authorship depends on your POV i guess

		That’s not what “AI slop” means and I’m confident you know that.
