Eh, not as big of a deal as people think. You've probably already read lots of AI generated content without even realising it

I often do notice it, although I sometimes wonder if people might be this stupid in real life or not.

Fair, but how about the stuff you didn't notice? You'd never know. College professors are being tricked everyday.

Kinda hard to prove a negative, right?

How would you know if you didn't notice? Could be dozens but could just as well be 0.
