Hey author here. I have actually rewritten the parts where you might call AI slop. I have tried to correct the text to the best of my abilities.https://bgslabs.org/blog/evolution-of-x86-simd/#acknowledgem...
If you look at there I tried to be as transparent about this process as possible. I simply didn't know any better than to use AI to fact check my data when I first started - which was a really bad idea and led to the horrendous outcome as you've seen there. I am not trying to hide anything, I made a mistake. If you could give the article a re-read and tell me where I might have gone wrong I would be really happy. I actually want this to be a good and useful educational resource, not AI slop.
Thank you for your time regardless.
