ChatGPT Review
Escudo Navy Deluxe showcases a meticulously balanced blend of Virginia and Perique tobaccos. The exquisite ribbon cut facilitates easy packing and even combustion, yielding a consistent burn rate. The Virginia imparts a subtle sweetness while the Perique adds a hint of peppery complexity. The moisture content is optimal, requiring minimal drying time. The nicotine strength is moderate, appealing to a broad range of enthusiasts. The tin note is inviting, and the room aroma is pleasantly aromatic. Overall, Escudo Navy Deluxe exhibits impeccable quality control, delivering a refined smoking experience suitable for both seasoned connoisseurs and those exploring the realm of pipe tobacco.

Claude Review
Escudo Navy Deluxe is a classic Virginia flake tobacco, produced by Danish company Orlik. The base leaf is a bright Virginia, expertly processed to retain maximum sugars and flavors. The ribbon cut flakes have a predominance of lemon and orange hues, indicating a high proportion of prized Orange and Yellow Virginias. The moisture content is ideal, with just the right amount of natural sugars remaining. It packs easily and burns cool and slow, delivering a consistent flavor experience. The natural sugars caramelize during combustion, producing a slightly sweet smoke. The balanced pH prevents tongue bite. Overall, Escudo Navy Deluxe exemplifies a well-crafted Virginia tobacco blend showcasing the rich, refined qualities of superior grade Virginias.

Plus one point for using the term "hay"; minus ten points for failing to use any of "grassy earthy woody floral bready or 'stewed fruit'".

Minus ten points for failing to tell me if this is an all-day smoke.

Minus twenty points for failing to use the term "sublimates".

Conclusion: better than most of the existing reviews on TR.

Honestly, I'm quite impressed with the quality of the reviews generated. I've noticed that Amazon has started using AI to summarize the reviews on some products and I've actually found it pretty accurate; the impression I get after reading 10-20 reviews matches well with the AI summary. However, there's a dead giveaway that one of the reviews above was generated by software:
Captain Black Grape pipe tobacco...accented with a sweet and natural grape flavor.

I refuse to accept that any actual human would refer to that flavor as natural grape.

Of the three--Bard, Claude, and ChatGPT--which "reviewer" aligns more with your preferences?
Generally speaking, all of these three, and some of the others, have different profiles. Some of them have more current training data for example, so I would go to them for something a little more cutting edge. Some of them have been designed in a way that I would say make them "better" or more natural writers. I will use different platforms depending on what I want to do with the tools. Most of the time I will run a prompt through multiple platforms and evaluate.

Now I know for sure no actual human wrote this, it says CB is using high quality Virginia's and burley, and that it has a natural grape flavor...nobody who ever smoked that blend would use those words
