It reads like an LLM wrote it. Word salad that waffles on without any substance. In fact I think an LLM wrote most of the README. There are the telltale bullet points with bold starting words for example.
- thelastparadise 2y ago> There are the telltale bullet points with bold starting words for example. Is this where we're at now, really? Basic markdown formatting is a telltale sign that something was written by AI?
- afro88 2y agoBasic markdown formatting, no. But using bullet points with bold starting words, after a really waffly introduction makes it more likely they just asked an llm to write it.
- quantadev 2y agoI think lots of modern writing apps allow people to let AI "reword" their own content, into better sentence structures, etc. I'm fine with that actually. Doesn't mean the AI invented the content itself.

- herval 2y agoyour examples are all telltale signals an LLM DID NOT write this text, to be fair
- afro88 2y agoYou need to spend more time getting LLMs to write documentation. Without examples of how you want it to do it, it defaults to word salad that sounds impressive on the surface, but doesn't really say anything. And it very commonly uses bullet points with a few starting words bolded. At least in my experience.
