Someone just brought up this point to me a few days ago on here, I'm definitely increasingly convinced that it's one of the main reasons (maybe even the main reason?) AI prose is so annoying to read through, and so rarely seems able to convey true understanding. It assigns the same narrative importance and dramatic tone to everything (the load bearing whatever, the crucial insight, the smoking gun) even when it's trivial.
What surprises me is anyone is surprised. Obviously a stocastic parrot has no understanding, so any conveyance of true understanding it delivers will be rare and accidental.
