What's the deal with these slop-y Linux tutorial "blogs"? (slrpnk.net)

In the recent days I've been stumbling upon weird, new so-called "AI" Mathy-math-slop sites, like linuxv*x.com[^1]. Some other was called something like "tutorialsipedia", or whatever.

[^1]: Don't want to give them the traffic.

Have you noticed these? Is that some weird new Startup that wants to leverage CEO and "AI"? I'd use them, but my eyes glaze off the page. It's like a drop on a Lotus leaf and I can't really read that garbage. What's up with those?

“reading” one of those pages but don’t remember what the page was about.

That's one of the biggest tells of AI-written text. It uses a lot of words to say very little, but does so in a very authoritative-sounding (or needlessly flowery) way.
