I know this line of commentary is getting tiring, but…<p>> These are not diplomatic talking points. They are factories, laboratories and payrolls.<p>> not communiques, not summits, but signed agreements<p>> These are not vague aspirations. They are the technical and regulatory arenas where …<p>> The Technology Prosperity Deal is a framework, not a result.<p>I can’t tell if these are AI tics or not, and that alone is very annoying. The anxiety of not knowing whether you’re reading the result of someone else’s hard reporting work, or being fed algorithmic content from a machine.<p>We really need some form of universal “AI-assisted” stamp on all published content, like some platforms already do for images.

Even if they are not (which I most definitely think they are), a good writer would know and avoid them, as sad as it is that there is a need for this
> as sad as it is that there is a need for this<p>It's just a fact of being a writer. Sounding like AI is the big current problem, but it's hardly new.<p>A big awkward one is politics; Certain turns of phrase and idioms are used exclusively in certain in-groups and a novice writer can easily blunder their way into sounding like a nazi if they're not careful.
The article is credited to this guy. ( He makes a LinkedIn post about the article, too. )<p>If this is AI, I’m impressed by the amount of detail-sprinkling it’s throwing in.<p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrep66/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrep66/</a>
I see your point, and totally agree it applies on art of any kind. But in news reporting? Here I am rather interested in the updates, in the information being brought to me. The packaging is less important - to me at least, so I wouldn't complain in this case. And let me underline again the difference: I don't even care to listen to AI music, but would read news brought by AI (those not hallucinated).
> Sweden is not cooperating with the U.S. because it has to.<p>Oh yes it does. The US wants to use Sweden to supply the EU, after they push for banning of all chinese equipment, and Sweden needs american military assurances.<p>US is creating all kinds of 'corridors' for american exports, including LNG corridor in south europe, despite all the anti-EU rhetoric.
Keep in mind this is written by a pro-Swedish business lobbyist in Texas, not by an international relations analyst.<p>I also don't think the US leadership has any plans for Sweden in particular, this is more likely the result of a top down directive to the US MFA to sign tech deals "in Europe" and signing something with Sweden just happened to line up nicely with the calendar for other reasons.
Frankly, the current administration doesn't have the tactical wit nor attention span to pull something like this off.
Would Taiwan, Ireland, Israel and maybe others be higher on that list?
