   The most problematic for me as a non-native has been "the" vs "nothing", i.e. when one can/should put the definite article.

   Pre-LLM I was joking that real AI is whatever can make that decision correctly 100% of times.

      I don't have this problem in English, I have it in my native language. It sounds super wrong to me that people say "that concept is called X in the math" instead of saying "... in math". I've never understood why this feels wrong to me, why couldn't you put a 'the' before it? But in English that's a well-established thing. Maybe my brain is wired wrong and short-circuits on Dutch
