Is it just me (tired, and overworked) or is this poor writing?
edit: Oh man, this article is dreadful, what the heck? Is this ESL or AI or what is going on?
Another example picked at random, that's not even trying to discuss a complex topic:
> It's hard to see where the future of quantum takes us, and it’s hard to say whether it looks exactly like IBM’s roadmap – the same roadmap whose running changes we also discussed here.

- dr_dshiv 3y agoIncreasingly, poor writing suggests that it was written by a human.
- Philpax 3y agoLLMs are almost always grammatically correct (it's one of the first things they learn); it's their semantic correctness/grounding that's lacking. You would be very hard-pressed to get language like this out of any modern LLM that's actually worth using.
- bglazer 3y agoYes this is borderline incoherent
- Zigurd 3y agoThe writer is based in Portugal. I'd blame bad translation and lack of edit by a native English speaker, plus some vague wording that doesn't readily translate.
- isaacfrond 3y agoExactly, don't attribute to AI what can be explained by poor English skills
