Huh. I disabled search in a Claude incognito window and pasted in just the text (not the markdown links) from https://simonwillison.net/2026/Apr/30/zig-anti-ai/ and said "Guess the author".

> Simon Willison. The tells are pretty unmistakable: the "(via Lobsters)" attribution style, the inline "(Update:...)" parenthetical correction, the heavy linking and blockquoting of sources, the focus on LLMs and AI tooling, and the overall structure of an annotated link post commenting on someone else's writing. This reads exactly like a post from his blog at simonwillison.net.
