It's probably not the same word for word, but with very similar structures. And LLMs tend to structure the text in very similar ways that don't feel quite right.
The article said they were the "exact same".
Some reporters tend to take hyperbole too literally.
It seems a more likely that the candidates were cutting and pasting a standard response, either way my point was to question the integrity of the article, which seems itself to be AI slop anyway.
Or, more likely, that the article was generated to target hot keywords and is completely made up.
