“Seamless”, “honed”, “unparalleled”, “delve” are now polluting the landscape because of monkeys repeating what ChatGPT says without even questioning what the words mean.

Everything is “seamless” nowadays. Like I am seamlessly commenting here.

Arguably, the meaning of these words evolve due to misuse too.
