Why did you write this using AI?
- mathrawka 1y agoGotta drive traffic to that blog of AI generated posts somehow
- kristopolous 1y agoI think this person genuinely writes like an llm. Read the rest of their comments. My llm radar picks it up as well. A reverse uncanny valley
- mbrameld 1y agoIs it just the list? I'm curious what specifically sets off your llm radar.
- cardoni 1y agoWhat made your radar go off? The em-dashes? As a lover/user of em-dashes myself, I'm curious to learn more about what you think "llm text" looks like in your head radar detector unit. :)
- jeffhuys 1y agoThe problem with answering this is that they learn how to sound less like a robot. Just use -, that helps a lot.
- kristopolous 1y agoInformation density. LLMs are great at stringing words together but don't pack ideas tightly. Also there's the personality. I've talked with chatgpt enough... I'm open to the entire account being an agent. That's certainly possible. There's a new market for astroturfing virality. Create hundreds of agents on various sites and have them engage in pablum and occasionally mention your product. We're entering a phase where you can't just have a dumb model to filter that out
- jeffhuys 1y agoLook at his blog. 0 spelling error, 2 big articles in 1 day. A LOT of —… This is just an LLM. I would be surprised if this guy writes like this. Why do you think he’s NOT an LLM?

- mbrameld 1y agoI don't know about his blog since this is a thread about whether or not his comment is AI-generated, but I ran his comment through GPTZero and it reports it's confident the comment is entirely human. I asked Claude to summarize his comment and ran that summary through GPTZero and it reported it was confident that it's entirely AI-generated. Maybe the comment didn't set of my llm radar because I didn't draw conclusions about the comment by looking at the blog, which very well might be 100% AI-generated.
- ednite 1y agoOk. I’m left speechless—but I can only comment that I’m trying to be genuine—obviously failing at an alarming rate! Yes, my blogs are edited with ChatGPT or whichever AI tool I have open, but my words and experience are my own, for what it’s worth—again, I am not an LLM agent. To be fair, I sometimes think ChatGPT writes like me. Where’s Sam when you need him? (Tasteless joke.)
- ryandamm 1y agoWait... not having spelling errors is now a mark of AI? Am I the only person who proofreads emails anymore?
- zahlman 1y ago> Wait... not having spelling errors is now a mark of AI? When you output long blog articles more than daily, it is. Proofreading takes time, and someone who cares enough to proofread will probably care enough to put in more time on other things that an LLM wouldn't care about (like information density, as noted in another comment; or editing after the fact to improve the overall structure; or injecting idiosyncratic wit into headings and subheadings).
- electroly 1y agoI think they are simply typing on their phone. On an iPhone, three dots and a space becomes the Unicode ellipsis, two hyphens becomes an em dash, apostrophes and quotes become curvy, letters are capitalized automatically. These things are not only easy to type, but hard not to type. I think they just really, really like em dashes. Not even ChatGPT uses them so frequently.
- ednite 1y ago"A reverse uncanny valley" I had to look that up, so embarrassing (especially from a tech nerd). Thank you for pointing that out, i will definitely focus less on perfection and be less worried about tyypos from now on— genuinely NOT being sarcastic and sincerely appreciate the feedback.
