It's written in "HBS case study" tone. You might not like it, but frankly, ICs aren't the target demographic anyhow.
They didn't tweak their prompt styling request enough... The ChatGPT world is depressing.
Doesn't seem like LLM generated text to me. Even prior to ChatGPT some journalists preferred to write in a novel-style with extraneous fluff like that.
Agreed. Not a single "this isn't just X, it's Y" in the entire article. Actually quite refreshing to read something written by a human for once.
The sheer number of em dashes in the text suggest to me that the reporter didn't write anything, ChatGPT did.
You know posh schools teach people to write with em dashes too, right?
Not to use them excessively. Good human writing has variety and style. AI articles are the same boring template, doesn't matter if it's emdash or not.
A lot of people don't actually learn good writing at their fancy schools - but they do they learn the stylistic quirks that signal one went to the fancy school.
How do you think it got in the LLM training set in the first place?
The other day I read some old blog posts of mine (~2016) and they contain "em dashes". According to you they were all written by AI.
If we give up every bit of punctuation that ChatGPT uses, written language will become much worse.
For the last time.. Word (the program very popularly used by many reporters across the world to write articles) automatically autocorrects hyphens to em-dashes according to the default loaded grammar rules for En-US. The existence of em-dashes in an article does NOT immediately imply GenAI slop.
ChatGPT learned to use em dashes from somewhere. They were widely used before LLMs.
