Once again the AI summary, this tine at the top of a @bloomberg.com piece, spreads misinformation by getting things wrong.

On the left: a professor says, essentially, that SOME costs of fossil fuels don’t show up in electricity bills.

On the right: the AI says that THE costs don’t show up.

What do you call it in 🇬🇧 when you had to write an essay in school of xxxx words, and filled it with superfluous words to get it done? Blurping?
Your superfluous "the" reeks of when I let Deepl pre-translate a few clisci papers 🇬🇧🇩🇪. Moulding Deepl's loopy, blurpy sentence soup was very time consuming.

(L) don’t show up directly in your electricity bills

(R) do not show up directly in electricity bills

There is no significant difference in meaning between the two versions.

No, L is an existential claim and R is phrased as a universal one.

But some costs of fossil fuels definitely DO show up in electricity bills, namely the costs of infrastructure repairs after extreme weather, which get passed on to ratepayers.

(This is one reason electricity is relatively expensive in CA—repeated wildfires.)

The AI hides these & that’s bad.
