At this point it isn't AI slop, it's got to be major Fraud by PWC. They were paid for in depth meticulous analyses, and instead, they just asked their drunk uncle AI, who claims to know everything, but really just has the knack to BS a halfway believeable answer.
To be fair, AI slop is probably higher quality information than the "in depth meticulous analyses" these kind of clowns have been peddling for thousands of dollars for the past 40+ years.
