Ironically, my confidence that a human had at least an active part in writing/editing this article went up because of this train wreck of a sentence:

> "A cache-aware model router will take that into account by adding stickiness to the initially chosen model and keeps querying it."

what’s wrong with the sentence? reads fine to me
Weird tense combination. I'm not sure if it's officially wrong but it feels weird to change tense mid-sentence after so many words. "X will do ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY and does Z."

I thought it could be a typo for "X will do ... and do Z" but only when I went to write why it's weird, I realised it doesn't have to be a typo.

It doesn't even matter here. It would mean the same thing either way.

'keeps' is the wrong tense and could be 'will keep'
i think it should be "by adding stickiness to the initially chosen provider of that model"
