Why is this sentiment expressed so often ("It was written/edited by AI"?

It seems to bother people, perhaps since it may have been low-effort. Doesn't it not matter as long as the content is good? Otherwise, it seems to be no different than a standard low-quality post.

The formulaic style/cadence/structure/tone is annoying, for one due to its LLM-induced prevalence, but also because it is padded and stretched without adding substance while being dyed in superficialities, and has a weird tendency of meandering through its thematic territory, like the author was slightly distracted or is writing the same thing for the 20th time, or is missing a good editor. Pre-LLM, it might have been an okay-ish, but not great, article. Now it’s just grating and makes you feel like you’re wasting your time reading it.

"Why is everyone railing against my spam? Doesn't it not matter as long as the deal I am offering is good?"

When people don't want the spam, it is irrelevant whether the spammer is offering a good deal or not.

When I want to read Ai writing (which is not never), I chat with it myself and I prompt it better and get more interesting stuff than these generic insight blogspam.

LLM prose is typically _painful_ to read, overly long, and bullshit-heavy.
