I know nothing about zig so just looked it up on wikipedia. Apropos of nothing it’s the first wikipedia article I’ve read that I’m convinced was written by/usin

  Having skimmed it, I had the opposite reaction, the wording is clunky in a way that I haven't seen LLMs do, it feels very human to me. Stuff like > Also the learning curve for Zig can be steep, especially for those unfamiliar with low-level programming concepts. I don't think an LLM would start a sentence with "also" like that > The small and simple syntax is an important part of the maintenance, as it is a goal of the language to allow maintainers to debug the code without having to learn the intricacies of a language they might not be familiar with. The wording here feels like someone who's a fan of Zig taking a sentence praising Zig's design and trying to rework it into a slightly more neutral encyclopedia style.

    > Other challenges mentioned by the reviewers are interoperability with other languages… This sounds exactly how llms have made comparisons for me. What reviewers?

      Those points are taken from the article in the reference at the end of the sentence, it's just someone rewording a blog post.

        “Someone rewording a blog post” is exactly the tone of an LLM summary.
