I know it's boring to comment and say that something sounds like it was written by an AI, but this sounds like it was written by an AI. I am often especially suspicious of these listicle recommendation sites because it's pretty cheap and easy to have dozens of sites doing some list which just so happens to mention a specific service that 'quietly' does a 'surprisingly good job' of some doodad. This kind of submarine advertising feels like it might be quite common. Although in this case it seems they're trying more for a 'sponsorship' thing - 'our website got X views in Y days, sponsor us, random company!'

The use of the word genuinely is always a dead giveaway

I recently came across https://tropes.fyi/directory which has a pretty solid set of common patterns, and I like it a lot. The pattern that always really bothers me is the one named "short punchy fragments", for example from the site “He published this. Openly. In a book. As a priest.”

It kills me every time. I automatically lose any interest in the substance and often just throw away the whole conversation!

You're absolutely wrong.

That's kind of sad to me, I've used that word a lot, it was my go-to and best technique for trying to convey sincerity in comment sections

[michaelsalim]

But someone can genuinely like using the word!

[ant6n]

It genuinely is.

And “honestly” in the way it is used in this piece

When will AI generated content have been prevalent enough for it to be consumed more than traditional content - and can we at that point consider humans the ones being trained, especially new humans, such that next gen human generated content clearly is heavily influenced by slop?

I myself already feel like my style is being influenced by all conversations I've had with LLM, if not influenced by their responses, at last influenced by how I talk to it.

I sometimes wonder if much upcoming human creative work will be quite avant-garde, out there, ultra-stylised and/or difficult to comprehend (or even devoid of intent or message), as a reaction to AI's sort of 'common denominator' approach.

Already happened, most of the internet pre-AI was just human-generated SEO-optimized slop created by underpaid content writers in third world countries. All those listicles, informaticals, etc, are now currently being used to train AI, but before that, they were what "trained" humans.

The rounded box with the accent border on the left gives it away

as long as the text is not slop (no hallucinations / factual) and useful to me, I do not care about the author of it
