Not a chance. Far too funny, too well written, too terse while being densely packed with wit. I see zero signs of it being LLM-generated and lots of stuff LLMs have no way of doing.
If I am somehow wrong I would salivate at a chance to see the input.
The author suddenly began writing a post per day around November 2025. They’re all tongue-in-cheek. I believe you are wrong.
Huh, neat. I will take a look at those.
And actually I see it clearly now, it has a bunch of signs I have called out multiple times myself. (It is entirely made out of lists of various types, and never states an opinion.)
Just my ego getting hold of me because I didn't realize it on my own.
I’m also struggling with this being AI. The blog owner is a real person who’s made significant contributions to the community for years. His post timeline is organic - wayback machine confirms they were published on the dates they show. So it’s definitely not a bot running the blog.
Whether (or to what extent) he uses AI to generate the content he posts is a valid question.
I agree with your earlier reasoning that this is far more clever than anything I’ve seen AI produce yet. Lots of AI humor is dad-joke level at best. If it is AI then he’s trained it on a hand-curated collection of top-shelf satire.
You don't even need to read past the first timeline entry. The name "Marcus Chen" is literally a meme within AI creative writing circles due to how often Claude defaults to that exact name when naming fictional characters.
Probably being used to enhance the humor, intentionally.
