It has become harder, no doubt about it. But let me invert your question somewhat: do you think you'd be unable to tell over a terminal (in a long interaction)

But let me invert your question somewhat: do you think you'd be unable to tell over a terminal (in a long interaction) that you're chatting with a LLM?
Remove the obvious constraints about no cursing, no hate speech, etc. Imagine an LLM completely uncensored. I still think I'd be able to tell with a high degree of confidence, considering multiple things: whether the "person" asks me questions, whether it refuses to answer directly (a real person will be less eager to talk about some touchy subjects, or may be shy, or upset), which topics it's eager to talk about, whether it shows lecherous behavior, whether it gets obnoxious or single minded, whether it has poor taste in things, whether it displays too much of an equanimous attitude in all topics, whether it is a bigot, or knows too much about stuff.

This isn't hard to implement >whether it refuses to answer directly (a real person will be less eager to talk about some touchy subjects, or may be shy, or upset), which topics it's eager to talk about, whether it shows lecherous behavior, whether it gets obnoxious or single minded, whether it has poor taste in things, whether it displays too much of an equanimous attitude in all topics, whether it is a bigot, or knows too much about stuff. You have to understand that an LLM would have zero issues doing all these things. Open AI and other L vendors instruct tune/RLHF to speak in a certain manner but it's not a limitation of an LLM itself

- Exoristos 3y agoOne quickly intuits the difference between an LLM and a human; unless that human were an insufferably long-winded law clerk with a sixth-grade nerd's fetish for seeming all-knowledgeable.

- the_af 3y agoHaha, good point. Also, it wouldn't help if the human "helpfully" tried to help you with bullshit, and when you called them out, they replied "I'm sorry, you are correct I made a mistake about [...]".
