I don't know why you are downvoted. The article is AI blogspam, it doesn't have any more factual information than eg https://www.darkreading.com/application-security/vercel-empl... and is full of empty LLMisms. It's depressing people are willing to read this.

> and is full of empty LLMisms

I dont have an llm-radar like you but I felt some anxiety reading through it. Cant explain why but the logic was not linear and this strained me as a reader. It didnt have the obvious llm-isms i see on youtube videos "not this but that". My natural instinct is to make sense of what I read, and if presented with a word-salad, it strains me. What are the empty LLMisms so my radar can be calibrated ? These are some giveaways I could spot.

> The timeline is genuinely absurd

> The timeline sequence description (Feb/March/April) is abstract and does not depict specifics reflecting human understanding.

I didn't notice till I saw this comment and now I'm also confident it's significantly AI written.

Because a comment that just says it's AI generated provides no value to the readers. They could at least provide an alternative link like you did.

  • It does provide value in that I know I shouldn't read it. It's clearly LLM written after a few glances.

That article you linked to didn't mention that Context.ai, from where this mess originated, is a YCombinator company. Most probably its founders are on this very web-forum.
