I do remember that! I don't remember anyone ever coming up with a good explanation for it though, and either my google-fu is weak or all the talk about it has link rotted. I found one comment on HN from 2015 mentioning it though https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10359102

In a way those were also language models, and from that Swiftkey post it's slightly more advanced than n-grams and has some semantic embedding in there (and it's of course autoregressive as well). If even those exhibit the same attractors towards beauty/love then perhaps it's an artifact of the fact that we like discussing and talking about positive emotions?

Edit: Found a great article https://civic.mit.edu/index.html%3Fp=533.html
