Reminds me that what we really crave is authenticity. It’s the number one rule for writing. Also shows why AI content is so pointless.

Interesting remark to me. I was thinking the whole time what parts may be made up. I'm a really bad judge of sarcasm, let alone actually dishonest content. In the end I'm inclined to believe the whole thing, but it's not particularly authentic, just quite different from my life and therefore interesting. (Some parallels also, as I've done computer fixing for some friends of friends.)

How does interesting and original work compare to AI-generated and most human-generated material? Maybe we could say rather than being merely plausible that it is surprising in plausible ways.
