I don't know if this Zig over C article is generated, but the Zig over Rust one [0] is painfully AI-written.
I'm not ideologically against AI, but I'd certainly not buy a book from someone who needs to use AI to write an article like that...

This is a hallucination. I'm sorry. This is what we call these kind of statements these days. Unless you can prove your humanhood, that's how it is now.
