I didn't notice any signs of AI writing until seeing this comment and re-reading (though I did notice it on the second pass).

That said, I think this article demonstrates that focusing on whether or not an article used AI might be focusing on the wrong “problem.” I appreciate being sensitive to the "smell" (the number of low-effort, AI posts flying around these days has made me sensitive too), but personally, I found this article both (1) easy to read and (2) insightful. I think the number of AI-written content lacking (2) is the problem.

Your initial focus is to prioritize which content to consume.
