I think it's time to have a badge for non LLM content, and avoid the rest.
- gregsadetsky 11mo agoThere seems to be https://notbyai.fyi/ https://notbyai.fyi/ and https://no-ai-icon.com/ https://no-ai-icon.com/ ..!
- Rasthor 11mo agoThere is also Brainmade: https://brainmade.org/ https://brainmade.org/
- benatkin 11mo agoThe name seems odd to me, because I think it's fine to describe things as a digital brain, especially when the word brain doesn't only apply to humans but to organisms as simple as a 959 cell roundworm with 302 neurons.
- righthand 11mo agoAlso the logo seems to imply a plant has taken over this person and the content was made by some sort of body-snatched pod person.
- grodriguez100 11mo agoIt’s cordyceps :-D
- kaycey2022 11mo agoWhat's stopping AI made content from including this as well?
- oconnor663 11mo agoI imagine it's kind of like "What's stopping someone from forging your signature on almost any document?" The point is less that it's hard to fake, and more that it's a line you're crossing where everyone agrees you can't say "oops I didn't know I wasn't supposed to do that."
- raincole 11mo agoIf this gets any traction, AI bros on Twitter will put it on their generated images just out of spite.

- ModernMech 11mo agoMeh. I mean, who's it for? People should be adopting the stance that everything is AI on the internet and make decisions from there. If you start trusting people telling you that they're not using AI, you're setting yourself up to be conned. Edit: So I wrote this before I read the rest of the thread where everyone is pointing out this is indeed probably AI, so right of the bat the "AI-free" label is conning people.

- James_K 11mo ago> Most programming languages hide complexity from you—they abstract away memory management, mask control flow with implicit operations, and shield you from the machine beneath. This feels simple at first, but eventually you hit a wall. You need to understand why something is slow, where a crash happened, or how to squeeze every ounce of performance from your hardware. Suddenly, the abstractions that helped you get started are now in your way. > Zig takes a different path. It reveals complexity—and then gives you the tools to master it. > This book will take you from Hello, world! to building systems that cross-compile to any platform, manage memory with surgical precision, and generate code at compile time. You will learn not just how Zig works, but why it works the way it does. Every allocation will be explicit. Every control path will be visible. Every abstraction will be precise, not vague. But sadly people like the prompter of this book will lie and pretend to have written things themselves that they did not. First three paragraphs by the way, and a bingo for every sign of AI.
- mef51 11mo agoThe em dashes?
- James_K 11mo agoThere's also the classic “it's not just X, it's Y”, adjective overuse, rule of 3, total nonsense (manage memory with surgical precision? what does that mean?), etc. One of these is excusable, but text entirely comprised of AI indicators is either deliberately written to mimic AI style, or the product of AI.
- osigurdson 11mo ago"not just x but y" is definitely a tell tale AI marker. But, people can write that as well. Also our writing styles can be influenced as we've seen so much AI content. Anyway, if someone says they didn't use AI, I would personally give them the benefit of the doubt for a while at least.

- mikepurvis 11mo agoEven for content that isn’t directly composed by llm, I bet there’d be value in an alerting system that could ingest your docs and code+commits and flag places where behaviour referenced by docs has changed and may need to be updated. This kind of “workflow” llm use has the potential to deliver a lot of value even to a scenario where the final product is human-composed.
