To be fair, AI writing is often unhuman. The biggest problem its more verbose than human writing. It adds additional not needed mental load in processing text.

Even in code documentation, I just need a function block that says "DO NOT PASS A VALUE OF 2", with maybe a deeper comment that says "yea the math breaks here", instead of a 5 page discourse on why you should not pass a value of 2.
