Hits you in the first row of buttons with the classic gen-AI slop "Why It Matters".

So trace* through ninerealmlabs and ahgraber and sure enough:

  I used AI:
  - to help build this website.
  - to help generate examples of sloppypasta
    based on my original guidance
  - to proofread and review the human-written
    copy to provide a critical review
  - to improve my arguments and ensure clarity.

Kudos for being forthright.

I talked myself in circles on that "why it matters" heading but ultimately couldn't come up with a better one. "The problem" has similar ai-slop feel, and "the rant" // "the rules" didn't really evoke the feeling I wanted.

Happy to take suggestions on this!

No, not just that heading, but also the obsession with comparison tables.
