There’s an actual approach where you have the LLM generate patterns of slightly less likely words and then can detect it easily from years ago. They don’t want to do any of that stuff because cheating students are their users.
- subscribed 1y agoThis is exactly where users of English as second language are being accused of cheating -- we didn't grew with the live language, but learnt from movies, classic books, and in school (the luckiest ones). We use rare or uncommon words because of how we learned and were taught. Weaponising it against us is not just a prejudice, it's idiocy. You're postulating using a metric that shows how much someone deviates from the bog standard, and that will also discriminate against the smart, homegrown erudites. This approach is utterly flawed.

- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoI’m referencing a paper I saw in passing multiple years ago, so forgive me if I didn’t elaborate the exact algorithm. The LLM varies its word selection in a patterned way, eg most likely word, 2nd most, 1st, 2nd, and so on. It’s statistically impossible for an esl person to happen to do this on accident.
