Oh come on. Just seven days before this 60-page essay, you apparently cranked out another 40-page one:

https://fazamhd.com/mental-models/software/

That's 100+ pages of in-depth technical writing in a matter of days. Amazing, really amazing. Also, not something that a human can do.

And FWIW, Pangram classifies vast swathes of "your" article as entirely AI-generated. Yes, I know the tool is not perfect, but between your superhuman productivity, and all the subjective tells, and the output from that tool, it goes onto my mental "AI slop" pile.

What I can't understand is why people can't just own it that they used a chatbot and that it was more than just "for review".

Short publication intervals. That's the heuristic you're going with? I have dozens of such unpublished long form articles on fundamental topics, just waiting for me to carve some time to polish. I expect that on a sabbatical I could finish and post them in quick succession. It's an unreliable indicator to determine AI-writing.

Author here, when I share something on my blog, i take full responsibility on the writing and the concepts being explained. This couldn't have been generated with just LLMs. If it was that easy, i wouldn't have bothered to work on it. I am sorry you felt that this was just slop, but i really thought people would enjoy reading it.

I have my rough drafts ready for all the topics which i want to explain. And I actually spent majority of my week working on the networking article, it's a lot.


Case closed.
