Does anybody else find these AI-authored blog posts difficult to read? Something about the writing style and structure just feels unnatural, it's hard put my finger on it.

At the very least, the writing takes way too long to get to a point.

Same, AI written anything is really difficult for me to read and pretty exhausting.

AI does a good job of condensing the blog post to 2 paragraphs -- Mac refuses to let the tcp_now clock rollover when it exceeds the max value in its data type.

This but Gemini and Email - literally marketed as "write bullet points and Gemini will draft your email", followed by "received a long email? Let Gemini summarise it for you."

The world's most effective _de_compression technology for email - total waste of time and compute when combined, but each product would make sense in isolation if human-generated mail was the majority of email sent/received (except sadly it isn't). We're using AI to spam people, AI to detect spam, AI to write non-spam and AI to summarise non-spam. AI inefficiency at every level and no way back.
