Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Is Co-Housing A Good Option?

[Kathy Ahlers (kathy]

There are some very odd things about this blog post.
First, no sources are discussed (and I doubt that any were consulted.) It's
puffery.

Second, a quick Google search does not find much of any track record for a
person by the name of Lorena Romo. I think this may be AI/bot-generated
(i.e., worthless) "content" as well as an AI/bot-generated author name.

Third, there are very awkward transitions and a lack of logical flow to the
ideas, further fueling my suspicions about AI (artificial intelligence)
generated content. If you think I'm making up this concept, au contraire.

I'd counsel against posting it on the cohousing site also because it
misrepresents cohousing, adds nothing of value to any past discussions of
it, and displays a lack of authoritativeness.

Those are my two-and-a-half cents.
