Not sure why everyone is complaining this is badly written - it's prose, written for dramatic effect with TSMC as the idk, plot? It should be read for beauty and word-taste, not just the story.
If AI can produce this, that's only good news since that means we can have more fiction-like nonfiction (for these who want it).
- tkgally 4y agoI suspect that a lot of people here are not used to this style of journalism, in which the writer foregrounds what they experienced and felt while reporting the story. Such writing used to be common in Harper's, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and similar magazines. I enjoyed it when I was young, but, despite the occasional insights--such as the uselessness of semiconductor fabs in Taiwan to China if China invades--this article wore me out before I got very far. I'm sure GPT didn't write it, but I would be happy to read GPT's summary of it.
- baq 4y agoYeah looks like folksy can’t comprehend actually reading for the sake of reading… I found it a fun read. Dramatic? Big words? Religion? Sounds like it was the point.
