I think the even more "high school essay" trait is it's tendency to infodump its marginally relevant general knowledge of the subject matter. Look at all the stuff I've learned, isn't it impressive!

And whilst it's bad at being nuanced, it's even worse at being opinionated because its guide rails and human testers alike love its answers to be qualified with generic caveats like "depends on the specific situation"...

If you ask me, this is very "con-artisty".

A ChatGPT answer looks exactly like a politician that doesn't want to tell you the answer to your question.

It also has a "high schooler" style, but mostly because of the rigid form it uses. If actual high schoolers throw random content in their essays like ChatGPT does, they will get negative points for that.

Yeah. Ask it a question and it will tell you everything about it but never the exact answer you are looking for. It takes prompts like be concise and direct, or only give one word, or the like to make it anything better. Sometimes first asking it to give a small answer and then explain step by step works well though.
