I don't get it either.

Since LLMs emulate human writing, what is it about that sentence that gives away that it was written by an LLM rather than human? Haven't we seen plenty of hollow-sounding self-aggrandizing marketing copies like this one pre-LLMs? What is it that is wrong with this sentence?

Please don't say it's an em-dash...

It’s a sentence structure that LLMs over-use: “this isn’t just X, it’s Y”.

It sounds like corporate meaningless drivel. Everyone is dogging on it because it's no different than when startups of yore would say "making the world a better place." As if the meaningless platitude was some incantation you had to whisper or the funding wouldn't close.

Give this a read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing#...

I linked "Negative Parallelisms" because it's relevant here, but the article in general covers a lot of AI writing styles
