You feel wrong. I would eat a bug before I ran LLM text on our blog. This one thing --- the fact that you can't negate a clause without people claiming an LLM wrote it --- this alone do I place angrily at the feet of AI.
- benatkin 10mo agoPeoples' writing is influenced by what they read, so such a strong objection to someone suggesting that an LLM might have been involved in the text of a blog post won't fly with me.
- tptacek 10mo agoShrug-emoji. I copyedited this post. I get that people don't have a lot of my writing to go off of on HN, it's a real problem I have.

- tptacek 10mo agoI've been typing `---` every time I do a dash since 1998 when I learned Latex to write a paper, and then (at the time) sort of just figured "oh if I keep typing --- people on Usenet will think I'm one of the Latex cool kids". Here we are. I refuse to stop just because LLMs have uslurped it.
