Disconcerting to see at the end that the blog post is generated. The genre is decidedly “use-my-thing Readme.md” and all current gen LLMs by default jump to shameless lies when they detect that they are writing such a Readme, although they are perfectly capable of working out the truth in a genre like “essay question on which you will be graded by academic standards.” Are the human “coauthors” lying if I hypothetical…
Why? Firstly, it clearly states it was written collaboratively. The usual division of labour splits the task into ideas and words, human the former, agent the latter. Is this a problem? I was interested in understanding the author’s ideas; consuming the words is an unfortunate chore. Secondly, this was published in three languages. Perhaps you missed the 日本語 and 中文, or dismissed them as agent noise? To reinforce the…

This kind of regular complaint on HN and Reddit is really strange.
"Look what I did with Claude!", no Claude did it.
"Buah the blog post is AI generated", of course it is, everyone and their dog are using AI now.
