    Like, this article just reads really badly. Maybe it’s just bad writers trying to reach a word count.

    A good way to tell bad writer vs. AI apart is to look for utterance purpose; basically asking yourself “what is the author trying to convey through this odd word/sentence/paragraph?”. Humans - even when not proficient in a language - are rather good at that; while LLMs (“AI”), as complex as they are, are just chaining words.

    If you do it with your link, most of the time you notice that the author is 1) trying to share some piece of info, and 2) promoting his store. That was likely not written by AI, but by a human being; it reads a lot like a verbose piece of advertisement because, well, it is one.
