I quit reading after the first paragraph when I saw this pattern: "Not X, not y, not z, A!" The overly emotional paragraph headlines were also off putting.
> "Not X, not y, not z, A!" You know, humans do that sometimes as well. Not GenAI's, not Agents, not automated systems, but actual humans!
The way the author thanks the person from AWS who helped him with a human approach is an AI generated article blaming AWS for using AI. Brilliant.

Sometimes! But when the cost of generating pages upon pages of bombastic text is near-zero, I have to apply quick heuristics to decide which text by people I don't personally know is worth my time to read in detail, and this article doesn't pass.

It may be not "generated", as in it's a true story, but the writing is AI.

Also, you've cut out the part where he says he did use AI, but just to "resort" the article (by which I assume he means "reorganize"). Whether one believes that is gonna be a judgment call I suppose.

Most LLM copy-paste accounts will deny it when called out.

The 'not a, not b, but c' writing style used to be _effective_. If someone wrote that way I paid attention because it was good writing. But because it is everywhere now, it has ceased to be effective, and it has the opposite effect. My mental heuristic sees this and zones out now.
If you're in a position like that, better start thinking about plan B cos it isn't getting any better.
A challenging writing style on a really difficult to read page with a sloppy AI header image means that this article was a not a great experience.
Extremely difficult to read when it's completely broken in Firefox (Focus at least).
