Although I thought it would be trivial to work around this heuristic by specifying "use some short sentences and some long sentences", that didn't really work for me. When I said "use only short sentences", the average sentence length was a bit shorter. But I was surprised that this type of meta instruction didn't work better (at least in this version).
- astrange 4y agoI tried defeating GPT detectors recently by prompting it something like "write with high perplexity" (https://towardsdatascience.com/perplexity-in-language-models-87a196019a94 https://towardsdatascience.com/perplexity-in-language-models...) and although it worked, I also couldn't get it to stop literally using the word "perplexity" in the output.
