I'm not sure if the parent comment was written by AI or not (you're probably right) but consistency is indeed one of the main things I think about with Android Auto. Not just consistency between cars, but also consistency with the rest of my phone. The principle seems worth considering.

I do though in other words "I can have my own stuff in any car immediately, it's especially nice on holiday in a rental"

I used a car-sharing service (Communauto) for a while when I was between vehicles, and it was invaluable to just plug in my phone and not have to worry about setting up anything else. No menus to navigate, no signing into spotify or google maps or even pairing bluetooth. Just plug in, yes trust this car, go.

There are legitimate reasons to get help from LLMs when writing, including being an ESL. The comment has substance.

The prompt they used was probably more succinct. Not everything needs fleshed out.

And maybe they just wrote a sentence like that because that's how they write. LLMs learned their style from humans, we were here first.

The prompt they used might've been in Albanian for all we know.

Ah but now you're just imagining things when it's simple to check. OP is, or at least claims to be, a midwesterner in his own comments.

It’s exhausting to read comments like yours where you are clearly triggered by a grammatical construction and reacting far more formulaically than the comment you’re addressing. The reason AI follows these grammatical patterns is because real humans also write that way. I personally identified with the word “consistency” specifically. Yes, that and quality are what I value in CarPlay.

"You are clearly triggered" "comments like yours" "reacting far more formulaically... you're" "you you you". They taught in the dorms first year to minimize "you" statements. Something to think about and profit from.

If all it takes to be a good person is spam low-effort high attention virtue signals that's great I will do more of that.

There are plenty of people who actually do write like that. That’s one reason why LLMs often write like that.

I like to disagree here. Despite the downvotes, not many people write or talk like that. It is not that common, at least in english. Contrastive framing is a pretty low-effort, high-attention signal, which makes sense in e.g. summaries, titles or ads. AI uses this as training data, and once you have this data, reinforcment learning will only deepen the usage, e.g. it will appear more often. Because it "sounds" familiar.

I'm sorry, but I do not buy the "people talk like that" argument. It's anecdotal evidence for me, sure, but I'm waiting for facts.
