Thanks for the great link! Here's an excellent paragraph the bot generated for me:

Note that the theory of syntactic features developed earlier can be defined in such a way as to impose the extended c-command discussed in connection with (34). Let us continue to suppose that the fundamental error of regarding functional notions as categorial raises serious doubts about a corpus of utterance tokens upon which conformity has been defined by the paired utterance test. Furthermore, the notion of level of grammaticalness is rather different from the ultimate standard that determines the accuracy of any proposed grammar. However, this assumption is not correct, since relational information is not subject to nondistinctness in the sense of distinctive feature theory. Nevertheless, this selectionally introduced contextual feature is, apparently, determined by irrelevant intervening contexts in selectional rules.
