I would 100000% rather read the author's own writing even if English is their 10th language

Rather than this inflated slop that look like I am trying to reach word count in a paper and one sentence becomes 15 useless ones

Edit: This is not so much commentary on AI than it is the core of your post is a few tables. Just post the tables and one or two sentence of conclusion and that is all ! It is so tedious to read through dozens of paragraph of autogenerated unnecessary nonsense -- that contribute nothing of value to the data

It's unfortunate because there's plenty of good, technical, perfectly readable content in the author's blog archive from 2021 and earlier without the overwrought purple prose.

That's kind of you. Thank you for taking the time to look through my older posts. Will be addressing this post based on the feedback here

I wonder why there is 4 year gap there. Their English is not even bad ! Its better than mine and definitely does not need any kind of GPT copyediting
Life and other priorities :)

But on the bright side I've got a large backlog of ideas now just waiting to be turned into pixels

I definitely appreciate the concise nature of the article. Doesn't waste my time at all. Whether that's due to the authors writing ability or some summery tool, I could care less.
