Developer @gabegrand complained that current frontier LLMs (like GPT-5.6 and Claude Opus 5) are overly fond of using complex, tongue-twisting "garden path sentences" in their text generation.
He shared several real examples from model outputs, where sentences initially lead the reader toward one structural interpretation only to abruptly pivot at the end. He tagged OpenAI and Anthropic, urging them to fix this frustrating reading experience.
