It's just an odd claim to make when it feels very much like AI generated content + publish the text anonymously. It's obviously possible to write like this without AI, but I can't remember reading something like this that wasn't written by AI.

It doesn't take away from the fact that someone used a bunch of time and effort on this project.

To be clear, I did not dismiss the project or question its value - simply questioned this claim as my experience tells me otherwise and they make a big deal out of it being human written and "No AI" in multiple places.

I agree with you. After reading a couple of the chapters I'd be surprised if this wasn't written by an LLM.

Did they actually spend a bunch of time and effort though? I think you could get an llm to generate the entire thing, website and all.

Check out the sleek looking terminal--there's no ls, cd, it's just an ai hallucination.
