Ironically, this article reeks of AI-generated phrases. Lot's of "It's not X, it's Y". eg:
- "The failure mode isn't malice. It's convenience",
- "You haven't saved time. You've forfeited the experience that the time was supposed to give you."
- "But the real threat isn't either of those things. It's quieter, and more boring, and therefore more dangerous. The real threat is a slow, comfortable drift toward not understanding what you're doing. Not a dramatic collapse. Not Skynet. Just a generation of researchers who can produce results but can't produce understanding."
And indeed running it through a few AI text detectors, like Pangram (not perfect, by any means, but a useful approximation), returns high probabilities.
It would have felt more honest if the author had included a disclaimer that it was at least part written with AI, especially given its length and subject matter.
