As soon as I read this: "Everyone Bought the Motor. Ford Rebuilt the Floor." my brain recoiled and I did not want to continue reading it.

This is rapidly becoming the damning accusation of quasi-journalism: this sounds like AI.

There should be journalism classes on how to not sound like a bot.

  • impossible, because bots will adjust to new way of writing very quickly. at the end of the day, they will be trained with the new style

Yep that was the exact moment for me too. The premise was interesting, but I hit that spot and just registered it as not worth proceeding.

Interestingly I did not directly recognise the text as AI, but this is precisely the moment that I stopped reading.
