It came right from the popular LLMs, so it's exactly the same experience you would have if you came to Claude or Gemini or ChatGPT and said, can you take this piece of writing, recommend the people who would be most useful to give feedback on it, take their most interesting works, and use that to try to give me feedback.

When you look at the feature, there's a disclosure next to every single link at the top and the bottom of the panel, very clearly stating these are inspired by these people.

Decoder with Nilay Patel

It clearly states we have no relationship with these people.

Decoder with Nilay Patel
