This was very obviously written with ChatGPT. The structure, emojis, emdashes and contrasting sentences. Surprised nobody is calling it out. IMO save us time and just give us the original short version you wrote to ChatGPT

"Let's Recap" is a dead giveaway.

You can tell just from the title alone.

I am currently employing a consultant for something. It's something I don't want to do myself and they are doing what I need, but it's so painfully obvious they are just vanilla ChatGPTing everything it's almost funny at this point.

I don't know the name of this rhetorical device, but I assure you it that using it is older than gpt

Yeah, a version of the construct famously ends the Albert Einstein copypasta, which is at least 10 years old at this point. Though I think stylistically it's considered bad writing, which is likely why it's so jarring when it starts to crop up in ChatGPT-generated text.

Just yesterday, a coworker used "And the best part?" while verbally relating a story.

ChatGPT must have trained on something. Only things I can think of are the many teen angst TV series with spoken "inner monologue" voice over, and narratives from people who are their own main character.

As if shaming people for using ChatGPT to write articles will have any meaningful effect. It's also quite fatiguing having to read the same complaint over and over when the solution is so simple yet many fail to grasp it.
