In some ways this reminds me of some cars that can detect when the driver needs a break. Wish it was a real thing, it’s easy to get lost in work sometimes.

Maybe you could use something like this to make it real:

> Building a Real-Time Concentration Tracker using MediaPipe and OpenCV

> A simple AI project that measures focus and attention using your webcam — with Python, OpenCV, and MediaPipe.

Making computers understand what concentration means is still decades away despite obvious advances.

I wrote this entirely by hand. What makes it read like AI?

Ignore it. You have written a nice, pocket-size post - easily consumable within a minute. OC is just being a jerk, perhaps they are dyslexic or have problems with focus and concentration. Good post, interesting easter egg, thanks for going through the effort of writing and publishing it.

Can we collectively just stop doing this? This is never helping anyone, it just adds noise and increases frustration. After all, most technical posts are not prose, I can't ever imagine anyone reading them and honestly complaining that it doesn't read anything like Milton, Dickens or Dostoevsky. Style is a very subjective substance and telling anyone they should do something about it, is like asking someone to try to walk more gracefully. And when people do it dismissively, without any practical suggestions for improvement, it is enormously disingenuous and off-putting. What if an article indeed was generated? So what? Were you able to extract useful information? Was it accurate, false or controversial? Let's talk of substance, discuss content and if you can't fucking clench your butt through a few paragraphs of any text - written by a human or a machine, then just ignore it, discard it - close the tab, delete the file, erase it from your memory, forget and don't complain.
