no I looked it up and apparently Using Hydrogen To Inflate Balloons is a thing! like you don’t do it with e.g. party balloons for safety reasons but it’s common for e.g. weather balloons
frankly there are so many ingrained good quizbowl writing conventions that. you just kinda have to get a feel for? that i doubt ai can replicate. gauging the difficulty of an answerline in particular can be kind of arbitrary (and isn’t necessarily dictated based on whether/how often something has come up before, there’s nuance to it) that i doubt ai will be able to figure that out (particularly if the little dorrit tu was any indication).
frankly even if ai starts writing quizbowl questions idk if i’d want to play them. strongly doubt any of them would have soul (and before we get into this argument, i don’t think most human written questions have soul either. some of them have to be boring. but when a quizbowl question hits it hits, and the things that make them hit are kinda human in nature in a way that i’d be incredibly shocked if ai ever replicated. idk if i have the words to explain it)
counterpoint:
this has tons of soul* it just also fucking sucks
* in the sense of being really funny
