>>fake blog posts

Define "fake." On the one hand, perhaps we have to rethink that word. A "fake" blog post would presumably be a blog post that isn't a blog post. On the other hand, perhaps what this really highlights is what absolute drivel most writing about productivity specifically and self-help generally is.

Just because GPT3 writes a diet book that becomes a bestseller doesn't make it fake or worse than other bestselling diet books. It also doesn't make the diet safe or sensible.

Based on the innocuous pablam on Liam Porr's APT3-driven blog, I'm actually thinking he undershot. I wish GPT3 were running for president.
