That article is frustrating to read. It says the same thing over and over again for several paragraphs without giving a single specific detail. It reads like a high school essay with a 300 word minimum.

That seems to be the trend nowadays, repeating the same thing as if they were trying to meet a quota. Often I see articles about a single tweet of about 100 characters, just summarizing the tweet several times with no additional info. Generating an article with AI would probably be even better now, especially when it's just a summary of a study.

Chat GPT repeats itself over and over, wouldn't surprise me if these articles were written by AI
