> Words including “surpass,” “boast,” “meticulous,” “strategically,” and “garner” have also seen considerable increases in usage since the release of ChatGPT.

Do people really not use these words too often that they'd be called "buzzwords?" Like "surpass" and "garner," really? I don't mean to boast..err...flex but these don't seem like very uncommon words such that I wouldn't use them normally when talking. I hear "strategically" in meetings a lot, but that poor word is likely over(ab)used

There's just words which previously were never used because there is a. more "common" word in the general lexicon.

An example of this is "delve" it's a perfectly fine word to use but chatgpt loved it, it's now super common to see in troubleshooting/abstracts because of it.

From what I understand, the apparent overuse of "delve" comes from its popularity in Nigerian English, where various evaluators were hired who are highly English literate but will work for tiny wages by US standards.
