Your output does seem generally representative, though do make sure you're on the dragon model. I think there's a combination of luck involved, plus our own human tendency to assign meaning where none may exist. And what better domain to assign meaning to potentially meaningless texts than philosophy!

Edit: And I tried to generate an article for about 10 minutes and if I didn't have any luck I would not have posted and if the post wasn't surprising then it wouldn't have been upvoted, so there's your selection bias at work. The generated text often knocks my socks off, but there's plenty of flops too.

I am definitely on the dragon model, my first few attempts went badly until I managed to correctly get it set. What setting are you using for the randomness by the way?
I am on the default, 1.0.
