It implies that the authors did not care to thoroughly review related work. They basically didn't read any papers.
If you try to have a technical conversation with this sort of a person, they'll communicate their points out of their behind.
But the examples cited in the article are indefensible. The authors of the paper we either so care less they did not notice the the “certainly, here is…” preamble made no sense in a paper. Or they have such a poor grasp of English that they are unable to comprehend what they copy-pasted to notice. Either way this suggests that nothing in the paper can be relied upon.
I'd say by definition the answer is no, since it's no longer humans communicating with each other at all.
