    Doesn't surprise me. Part of the allure of AI for the moneygrubbers is a) people trust it because ... it talks like people and b) they can inject any bias they want into it for a price.

    The first sentence in the article immediately sounds AI written and also doesn't really make sense.

    "I asked ChatGPT for the best AI note taking app. Seven words, no brand names." - The question was seven words? But later on the article says the prompt was "best AI note taking app 2026".

    I don't know if there's a name for that AI writing pattern where it says something like "(Number) x, no y." but I see it all the time. It seems similar to https://tropes.fyi/tropes/negative-parallelism

    This is like if Google didn’t show anything after sponsored results… wild, platform-undermining stuff
