Reviewers: Let's End the AI-Generated Content
I recently came across the review of a tube amp that I was excited to learn more about, a review on a well-known site by someone whose reviews I've enjoyed in the past. But as I began reading, something was not quite right. Phrases like "the dulcet tones of the amplifying device revolved around the listening environment" and "the KT170 amplifier tubes were more than worthy in generating timbres of truest fidelity" were peppered from beginning to end. WHAT? I am seeing these AI-generated sentences more and more in reviews, and my message to these reviewers is threefold: 1] You only make yourself look bad when you choose to incorporate AI into your writing 2] Your readers are not stupid 3] Your readers deserve better. And to the editors who have a responsibility as content gatekeepers, step up and hold reviewers accountable for original content...your readers will thank you.
