GPT-3 has a style. It's coherent blithering somewhat unconnected to the real world. This, not coincidentally, is the same style popular with bloggers, pundits, and people who have the need to create text without having much to say. GPT-3, unanchored to any underlying world model, shows this style in its purest form.

After you've read enough GPT-3 output, unanchored blithering becomes painfully obvious. The parent article does look like that.

This is a repost, by the way. The same article was posted on HN two weeks ago.[1]
