The "doc" page starts off with about 800 words of philosophy. At first I thought it was AI generated, but it's too strange and rambling.

https://if.openages.com/doc

Excerpt:

> In the process of biological evolution, gene mutation is the main source of biological evolution, and the "mutation connection" of neurons is the main source of promoting the "thinking evolution" of the human brain. Two nerve cells that have never been connected suddenly "have a call" at a certain moment. Real life is repetitive, monotonous and boring. You can come into contact with new things and have new experiences. It is a low-probability event. Therefore, from the perspective of probability theory, this "sudden call" requires huge energy and is a low-probability event. It must have unique value.

This is the "underlying reason" for building this feature. As a developer, I need a starting point when creating something. You might consider this starting point philosophical, but for users, they don't need a tool that converges; they need a lifestyle that includes life philosophy.

As a user evaluating a tool like this, I definitely don’t need a “lifestyle that includes life philosophy”.

Life has different stages, and the thoughts at each stage are completely different; don't be so absolute.

Don’t patronize me. I absolutely know what I need and what I don’t need, thanks.

Of course it's not generated by AI. These emotional expressions are my heartfelt words, which AI can't produce too many of.

AI is very good at generating this kind of word vomit.
