Ending with a spin on "if you didn't bother to write it why should people bother to read it." Way to rail on cliche repetitive slop, with more cliched slop. Will the irony never cease.

This reader revolted after the second unnecessary (and exclaimed!) parenthetical. You can't please some people.

I don’t think this is remotely true. Sure, they’re legally obliged to let you unsubscribe, and sure, it’s not dick pills, but every US company will immediately send you a newsletter when you purchase something, review requests and, if they/you use Shop for checkout, expect an abandoned cart reminder.

PR pieces and software companies don’t write tutorials to be helpful, they are advertising to you. If the LLM can do it for cheap, they really don’t care.

This entire article is the bad toupee fallacy.

Readers think they don't like LLM-authored text because they only recognize bad LLM-authored text as LLM-authored.

Blind trials have actually shown that readers generally prefer LLM authored books to human-authored ones on the same subject.
