- s4i 3y agoIt was all pretty good until "Remember".
- foota 3y agoWhat stuck out to me is the number of bullet points and the numbering, as well as the closing sentence.
- RheingoldRiver 3y agoNah I could tell by the first line. > Detecting if a cover letter is AI-generated can be challenging, especially as AI improves over time. huh? that doesn't seem true, it's pretty easy to tell AI-written work > However, here are some general tips that might help: Oh lol. (actually written by me ways to tell): - it will ALWAYS give an irrelevant first couple lines that sound like they're from a third grader's "haha you have to write an introductory paragraph" assignment - it tries to "both sides" literally EVERYTHING it says. like if you said "how do you make a snowman" it would say something like "Learning to build a snowman can be challenging. However, if you live in a cold climate with snow, it's a great activity for both children and adults!" like what? why do you need a POV contrast here? but it will always do this. - there's next to 0 sentence length variation. - no idiosyncratic tendencies, eg using "like" a lot. Few people write like this, we write like we talk (as you can see I picked this example because I'm, like, guilty of it myself) - no personal anecdotes at all. people like to talk about ourselves. the fact that an AI-generated response will never do this is very weird. (though I guess it would if you said "write a cover letter about myself") I'm sure there's a shitton of clues that I pick up on subconsciously but yeah AI content is pretty obviously AI content.
- baq 3y agoThis is all true, but just a few more words in the prompt make it way harder. Just adding ‘be concise’ can make it passable.
- mrmanner 3y agoThe ten-point ordered list is a clue as well
- addandsubtract 3y ago> why do you need a POV contrast here? but it will always do this. Pretty sure this is from all the blog spam it was trained on. They all use this writing style.
- xigoi 3y agoNo, already the first sentence is typical ChatGPT style.
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoEspecially the first line IMO; the rest actually seems mostly passable, but that first line immediately flagged as GPT-generated to me.
