    Hah. "load bearing" is such a common claude-ism that its legitimate usage now needs to be acknowledged:

    "That question is becoming more relevant as higher-capacity drives become more (dare we say) load bearing."

      It makes me a little physically sick that writing, something I love, is now tainted by the constant nagging thought, "could somebody mistake that sentence as AI?"

      Critics of this line of worrying tend to fall into the same category of irrationality/bias as the "just be yourself" advice-givers.

        It is an interesting thought about how these AI-cliches will affect human-written text that will subsequently be used in training - thus perpetuating the cycle.
