    This kind of feels like it was written by a large language model. There’s lots of content. But there’s no through line. No cohesive narrative tying it all together.

      Ironic when they’re trying to talk about Corporations Cutting Corners, eh?

      Yeah, I noticed the same thing. Lots of paragraphs that start with “[person/thing] is [context/role]”. I wonder whether it’s actually human written, but they poorly integrated too many individual perspectives into the article. Building a narrative from fragments in this way takes a lot of skill to pull off, perhaps they were too ambitious (or too cautious — I’ve seen this pitfall when the writer is too tentative in making their own argument on a spicy topic)
