If it's good enough, sure. Not much of it is.

But there's also the whole epistemic issue of "if it's good enough, you won't know it's AI." My AI-dar is pretty keen but given the quantity of things I read and the quantity of AI stuff out there, it's entirely likely something I thought was human and liked was actually AI. In which case, there doesn't seem much point in getting retroactively upset about it if someone later tells me. shrug

Sometimes i realize I'm reading AI bullshit while I'm already a few paragraphs deep (and then auto-close). I get this feeling that something is "off", don't know how to explain. This happens more often with topics like movies and gaming news. I guess it is just easier to fake that kind of text to a perceived sufficiently quality threshold. Maybe because most of the human-written text in the genera already looks LLM-ish (repetition, conjecture, listicles...)
