A lot of the times the vibes are correct. Text uncanny valley, I suppose.
The other day I was doing research for a paper about cornbread, and I was reading this website that seemed fine at first. It said something like “Corn was originally grown in the Americas by the native Americans” and then a couple paragraphs down it said “Corn was brought to the Americas by the Europeans.” This wasn’t just straight up factually incorrect, but it also contradicted the own damn thing it was saying! Incredibly frustrating to be down that far in an article and realize that everything I just read can’t be trusted. Not to mention, those AI written articles say nothing half of the time because they just repeat the same thing in a convoluted word salad.
Essentially I identified multiple cornbread variants such as hoecakes, hushpuppies, corn pone, and hot water cornbread. Also noted how cornbread itself varies both regionally and by class. People who were of the lower class tended to have cornbread that used less ingredients (usually cornmeal and water). Yankees usually make their cornbread like cake and put a lot of sugar and baking powder. There’s also Mexican cornbread with pimentos, jalapeños, and cheese. Southern cornbread varies but usually has none or a teaspoon of sugar to offset the flavor of the shit cornmeal which is usually the only thing you can find in stores nowadays. Cornbread pone is more popular in the southern Appalachian mountains and directly came from the native Americans.
