I was about to argue with you, but I now believe this article (and indeed the whole blog) is AI-generated. Here's my evidence: * All the posts are walls of text. In many of the posts, all of the paragraphs are just about exactly the same length. * None of the posts contain personal stories, experiences, or anecdotes. * All of the posts are hyper-focused around advocacy of "old tech" and decentralization. Which is great, but real blogs with this many posts have at least _some_ variation in subject matter and quality. This one's surprisingly uniform. * The blog is relatively new, posts began about two months ago and there are 17 posts, that's a little over 2 posts a week. Sure, there are bloggers who post that often, sometimes daily, but they are usually much shorter posts, tend to be shorter, or do it for their job. * The picture of the author on the About page is very obviously AI generated. * The author has a GitHub account that had virtually no activity until March of this year, and basically all of the commits were co-authored by Claude. To be clear, I'm sure a real human is behind the site/posts (as opposed to a fully autonomous agent), but I'd bet dollars to donuts that each article started out its life as a very short prompt. | ||
