Please stop posting AI-generated answers to StackOverflow. Please. Most are just low-quality. Some are filled with subtle mistakes. If the asker wanted an AI-generated answer, they would have gone to an AI, not SO. You typing it into ChatGPT for them helps no one.

And they tend to be really obviously AI-generated. It's not as hard to notice the style as I thought it would be. ChatGPT doesn't write like most SO contributors. So I throw the question in myself, and see if I get answers like yours.

@cocoaphony It's astounding how quickly this became one of the top flag categories coming in every day. I had thought this would be a fad that dies down, but I should have realized the same motivations that drive the creation of sock puppet accounts would fuel this.
