> So it’s definitely AI. I felt betrayed and a little foolish. But why?

Because the prompter is basically gaslighting reviewers into doing work for them. They put their marks of authorship on the AI slop when they've barely looked at it at all which convinces the reviewer to look. When the comments come back, they pump the feedback into the LLM, more slop falls out and around we go again. The prompter isn't really doing work at all—the reviewers are.



Not sure why this is being downvoted. It accurately and succinctly describes a likely reason for a _feeling_.
