Love how in your assumption of mediocrity, everyone who is remotely verbose and well-spoken is AI. Because god forbid AI learned how to write from someone, much safer for you to assume that everyone matches your baseline intelligence than feel threatened by someone smarter than yourself. So you call them bots.
Some people write extensively no matter the context. They're often mischaracterised as AI by people like you who fling the word around like baboons and shit.
I don't know. Hence I don't point the finger and call them a bot. If I did, and they weren't, reacting to the accusation would make them either lose their rational standpoint, or answer in an analytical way which fuels the baseless accusation. There's no winning for anyone accused of being AI who is not. And I bet that fact makes you gloat as you throw the word around.
I don't consider using more words to express the same thing (and in english even) as something worthy to pursue. But each to their own.
