    I wouldn’t be surprised if Choice fucked this test up. The wide range of results from the Cancer Council products was very strange.

      Possibly, or the standards are vague. The PR person from the brand that had an SPF of 4’s spin was basically everything is SPF 50 if you put enough on.

    You can tell it’s an AI-generated article because of the em dash in the title /s

      Fuck I hate all these “AI-detecting” advice I’m seeing going around. So much of it is literally just good writing—use of em dashes, use of the rule of three, and parallel sentence structures. There are other things, of course, like the general vibe of being generic without saying much, but I feel like people are really grabbing onto the grammar and syntax points. I’ve been accused of using AI before, and the person even doubled and tripled down when called out—I have never used AI for any social media comments—all, presumably, just because I know a few alt-codes and really, really basic rhetoric.
