This may be the funniest thing I've seen in a while. But also a warning about trusting AI generated content.

Now I'm curious if "Lucy Reed" is a real person who posts AI generated content or if that's just one of many fake people designed to give automagic content a byline.

Should there be a law requiring content houses to annotate stories written by AI? What if the story is written by a human but finessed by Grammarly?
