No matter how hard I try, I cannot convince myself that this was written by an AI and not by a person.

Text models have improved an incredible amount in the last 5 years. At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if we pass the Turing Test before New Year's.

I think copypastas are a particularly good fit for an AI to create, since they follow a rigid structure with word substitutions based on a particular topic.

I think there's a huge difference between creating an AI that generates copypastas and creating a general AI that can learn the concept of copypasta without being taught directly by a human.
