He used the term Punter instead of gambler or player.

Google says:
A punter is a term—most common in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand—for someone who gambles, places bets, or wagers money on sports, horse racing, or other events.

The article says it's written by Mike.
But in all the decades, I've never seen him use that term?

"Punter" is not a particularly new term. I know I heard it in the movie Snatch, and it wasn't new to me way back then.
May the cards fall in your favor.

To answer the original question, NO, absolutely not! I am embarrassed to have my name associated with that AI-written piece of rubbish.

Yes, a good clue was the term punter, which I mainly hear in Australia.

I've asked the site owner to remove my name from it.
