You're not paranoid. ChatGPT has a really obvious format. If I could bold text on HN (not that I think I want that), I could do an even better impersonation:
I am a 3-sentence paragraph giving a high level overview of the topic. This is the second sentence, which starts to fill in a little more detail about the topic. And the purpose of this sentence is to introduce the sub-topics and bullet points I'm about to provide.
Brief sub-topic title
1. Bold Word - A short, snappy sentence about the first item.
2. Bold Word - More of the above, about the second item.
3. Bold Word - Again, a snappy description of the third item.
Brief second sub-topic title
1. Bold Word - A short, snappy sentence about the first item.
2. Bold Word - More of the above, about the second item.
3. Bold Word - Notice that all these descriptions fit on one neat line.
4. Bold Word - Four items is the longest list you're likely to see.
