She’s a great writer.
A lot of people owe this family an apology. Here’s a sampling of some of the vile comments left on Reddit.

    Hmm. Pangram AI detection says the piece is “100% human written.”

    Really? A comment in another thread says Pangram says it's 100% AI. I just checked with the free plan, and it told me 29% AI. What I'm learning here is that Pangram may not be a reliable checker.
    Thing is, I also twigged it as heavily LLM written when I read it, so. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I checked again with a longer sample—the first eight paragraphs—and, this time, Pangram said 61% human. Hmm. I think your twigging may be more accurate.

    I got the vibe that maybe an LLM was used for editing but the stench wasn't overwhelming.
