The animated graphic labeled "Occam's razor, formalized" is bizarre. Is that really visualizing "Occam's razor, formalized"?

Time to first detected slop in this article is <1s. Claudisms per paragraph is also very high.

Is it too much to ask from people to read their own article anymore?

What I really dislike is having to edit my own non-LLM assisted writing to make sure I'm not accidentally confused with AI.

I caught myself writing "And that matters because..." in a HN comment but had to edit myself. Also miss uising emdashes.

These models are trained on human language, which belongs to us, we shouldn’t surrender it to them. Keep the em-dashes. IMO don’t overuse negative parallelisms though, they were always bad and lazy.
