Note that it's a discussion of the book itself and not of the book review. This book review is interesting in that it gives a number of the best known books to learn about deep learning.

Ah, thanks for the correction. I saw the title and remembered the earlier discussion - only paid attention to the github repo and not that the link led to a different pdf. I also missed 'review' mentioned here in the title.

The 'delves' style, and word usage confirmed me that the review was written using ChatGPT.

What is the ‘delves’ style?

There is some circumstantial evidence that the word 'delves' implies that ChatGPT wrote it.

Some evidence here: https://arxiv.org/html/2406.07016v2

>Less common words with strong excess usage included delves (=28.0), showcasing (=10.2) and underscores (=10.9), together with their grammatical inflections (Figure 2a).

But of course, that isn't a smoking gun, it might just be coincidence. The linked arxiv paper itself uses 'delves', probably tongue-in-cheek :)
