that smells of AI [1], and thus lazy writing. I'm all in for using AI to help you write, but if you don't put your voice to it then there's no reason to read it.

You see this in all the AI generated Tik Toks. What causes AI to use such a weird construction.

Don't be all-in. It's important for humans to be able to write for themselves, and also to stand by what's been written in their name, which is much less likely if someone/something else has done the writing.
(proofreading is another matter though.)
Exactly! But AI is here to stay. Sooner or later, even comments on HN will be 100% AI generated. And we won't be here to read them - our AI agents will. /s

It stopped being infuriatingly sloppy and took time to ensure the article had integrity.
It did having said that I did burn through a lot of tokens trying to do a deep analysis cross data pipeline debug.
