The worse problem is blog posts after the cost of writing collapsed.

Not everything has to be written as though it’s a middle manager’s idea of what makes for a good TED talk.

I closed the tab after seeing the AI hero image. Good to know I didn't miss anything.

You did miss something. But the picture doesn’t help…why would you start an article with an image that telegraphs “low effort”?

Reading the domain-name had the same effect for me.

		You discount people's blogs based on them having a non-western name? Maybe I've misunderstood your comment, but the domain is just their name.

		I can't change my name, but happy to change the hero picture :))

I read this entire article and didn’t sniff AI, plus it had some good insights…?

Feels like a human-authored outline that was run through AI to make it into an article.

I've written this myself, Gemini 4 did a bit of editing:

> What follows is a cleaned-up version of notes I accumulated over the past year. Gemini 4 helped with the editing.

The image is made by an AI image generator on fal.ai. It's better I spare you all my design skills :)

Well it contains a typo, so it made a cock up.

More than that, the AI disclaimer itself is a hallucination:

> Gemini 4 helped with the editing.

There is no Gemini 4, unless the author is writing from the future.

		You are correct, my bad. I meant to write Gemma 4. I'll update.

AI image, though.

Yes the article took a while to get going, but once it did it was thoughtful and well reasoned.
