Look, I appreciate the article, I believe these are important news worth discussing, but was there really no way to write it without LLMs?

I'm sure there are enough proponents of "what's important is the content, not who and how exactly typed it," but my brain has developed something like ad banner blindness but for LLM writing - it just shuts off as soon as it sees "this distinction matters" or "does not automatically guarantee." This is not to mention that LLM generated texts are just really confusing and difficult to read, take for example this sentence:

> Linux is not explicitly banned. Desktop Linux users could access a website and scan a QR code using a supported mobile wallet.

At least two people here agreed it's a really weird way to put this, but at this point I'm honestly inclined to believe that this is just the product of AI putting together some words that kind of sound on-topic even though they are actually meaningless in the context (a.k.a. AI slop), and not someone's actual thought. --- 100% AI pangram: https://www.pangram.com/history/8c60b6ec-cd89-41fb-b8c8-abc0...
