The author shares a newspaper clipping and argues no LLM could have written this headline — the humor has a distinctly human touch.
The headline reads "Dimmer sums for Hong Kong traders after exchange looks to cut lunch break", covering HKEX's plan to scrap the noon break. "Dimmer sums" puns on "dim sum", hinting traders would lose their lunch — the kind of wordplay the author sees as proof of human wit in financial journalism.
