To be fair that sounds exactly like something an organic redditor would say.
The thing is, in the context, it was probably painfully obviously a joke. But AI doesn’t understand jokes. And they removed it from context.
It wasn’t. It was on a “Family Medicine” subreddit, which the name alone gives off red flags.
Don’t get medical advice from Reddit. Don’t even have “medical advice” subreddits. The bot was probably doing the best it could with the information available. But, of course, I can’t get the full context, because OP linked to a paid article.
You sure? I think it’s time to leave your wife!

That only helps some, but not enough. I would bitch and report this article to the moderators, but the moderator is the one who posted the goddamn article!
Reddit has an AI? That’s news to me.
