Format not preserved when pasting from Google's AI-Generated output to Vim.

[Rick B]

Please advice, when I paste text from AI-text generated output from the browser to Vim the format is not preserved as the pasted text shows all in one sentence, and it is not structured a it appears in the source text in the browser.

This only happens with text generated from Google's AI since other pasted text like text from a web search is pasted properly as it shows in the browser, or any other source like Word formatted text. I think I have tried most pasting commands and tried also the ":set paste" and ":set no paste" with no success. Please refer to the following example:

Original text from the browser Google's AI Output:

"Why Use Vim for Prose

• Modal Editing: Allows for quick maneuvering and editing (Normal mode) versus typing (Insert mode).
• Keyboard-Centric: Keeps hands on the home row, increasing efficiency by eliminating mouse usage.
• Plain Text Focus: Encourages writing in Markdown or simple text, which is lightweight, non-proprietary, and future-proof."

And this is how the pasted text shows in Vim:
