JFC, this marketing speak makes me wanna slap someone. I’m not sure how you can so many words and so little.

AI is shockingly good at doing just that.

I guarantee a human did not write this.

I guarantee you, managers, sales teams and PR firms have been writing copy like this since the first company was started. Unfortunately, LLM is just reducing the amount of typing a human has to do.

I suppose, "write so many words and yet say so little"? Or less awkwardly, "say so little with so many words".

Well shit. My ADHD brain leaves out words all the time. It was supposed to be “say so little”.

What did they win? If that works, they were right and deserved to get their way. If it doesn't, thousands more jobs will disappear as they figure out how they ended up in this metaphorical smoking crater.

If you like spoilers, its going to be the latter.
