Yeah, it's amazing how fast people can overlook incorrect results when the form is in the spotlight. Or the AI rhetoric is convincing or plausible.

I recall a tweet by Altman, leaking the launch of GPT-5, praising their new model's answer to a prompt about thought provoking TV shows about AI. The X thread that followed was about the form ("em-dashes are still there!") and nearly nobody cared to evaluate that neither shows recommended were about AI. They weren't, or at least, were very debatable as belonging to the genre.
