Can you elaborate? Do you mean that the final version is not approved by the author/s for publication?

It is a valid question. I looked at the author's profile and while he is not from US ( Amsterdam ), his studies focus[1] appears to be on subjects that would suggest he should be relatively well acquainted with politics in US along with how they differ in terms of terminology from EU or UK. Sadly, I can't seem to say for sure how term was intended in the article itself. That said, the author does seem to reference individual US parties.

GPTZero flags every single section of this beyond the introduction as 100% likely to be AI-generated.

Looking for recommendations for discussion forums that aren't filled with these slop posts, anyone have any suggestions?

Can I just say, I'm getting really sick of these LLM-generated posts clogging up this site?

GPTZero gives this a 95% chance of being entirely AI-generated. (5% human-AI mix, and 0% completely original.)

But I could tell you that just by using my eyes, the tells are so obvious. "The myth / The reality, etc."

If I wanted to know what ChatGPT had to say about something, I would ask ChatGPT. That's not what I come here for, and I think the same applies to most others.

Here's an idea for all you entrepreneur types: devise a privacy-preserving, local-running browser extension for scanning all content that a user encounters in their browser - and changing the browser extension icon to warn of an AI generated article or social media post or whatever. So that I do not have to waste a further second interacting with it. I would genuinely pay a hefty subscription fee for such a service at this point, provided it worked well.

Many of the author's rebuttals hinge on the assumption that everyone in an organisation is acting in its interest first - and not their own, often conflicting, self-interest. As such, they are not particularly convincing.

Large organisations absolutely do, as a function of their scale, produce pockets where slackers and incompetents can hide. They'll surround themselves with a web of process, pointless meetings, and substance-free buzzword-heavy documentation/presentations to disguise this fact. Others may become ensnared in this web, and will rightly express the criticisms that the author is attempting to debunk.
