Edit: The post was probably heavily AI written and contains mistakes to that effect, which is unfortunate. The data in general is still interesting though.

Near-identical doesn't make it valuable. Plausible but incorrect is still incorrect. AI creates plausible and credible but incorrect data.

The plausibility and credibility is like a honeypot for your confidence. You read it, and understand it, and come to believe it. But it was false all along. You think you learned things. You actually learned nothing.
