    > Picture this: it's 2027. A chilly spring is approaching, and you want a new coat before the Super El Niño. Instead of scrolling through endless online stores, comparing reviews, checking size charts, and hunting for discount codes, you tell your AI shopping agent what you're looking for — and it takes care of the rest.

    Why would they AI slop this?

    Is this supposed to be ironic and I’m missing the joke?

    If it takes you less time to ‘write’ something than it does to read, I’m not reading it.

      I think this is (was?) a good writing style, until it is everywhere.
