Please disclose AI use, or the name of your "writing agent" at least, so I can know to skip the article. So much "it's not X it's Y" in this post, I'm losing it. > This isn’t whimsy; it’s how I remember who the work is actually for. > These aren’t chatbots with personalities; they’re specialized configurations I invoke by name to focus my intent. > That’s when I realized the naming wasn’t a quirk.

It seems like you're asking for a generic security scan. > I need to look for what I missed. I need to find the secret traveling farther than it should, the data leaking where it shouldn’t, the assumption I made that an attacker won’t make.

At least right now it's mostly in AI-related articles. Scroll any AI article and have a look at the number of topic headings as well as how many start with the word "The". I have my defenses up on any AI articles and can quickly avoid the are LLM-output with aesthetic clues. An upfront disclosure would of course be better. Unfortunately other topics are still catching me off guard, like the article about complex numbers posted today which I managed to get through a third of before realizing all the grating bits I was reading were because it was from an LLM.

literally anthropomorphizing AI agents. To be fair, I certainly name my tools. But I didn't have to use AI to invent a whole bunch of "personalities" for them.
