Or its a simple signifier that the author was human, and that a real person is trying to convince you of something. I've experimented with putting minor grammar mistakes into my work of the sort that would be frowned upon, but are not strictly invalid. The existence of any kind of mistake makes the work sound "human".
- MichaelZuo 7mo agoWho said signalling would be limited to just 1 thing at a time?
- coldtea 7mo agoDon't know about that as a general rule, since spam messages have had typos and mistakes in them since forever, and its precisely what marks them as not trustworthy.
- Cpoll 7mo agoI expect that won't be the case for long. LLMs don't make spelling errors.
- robhlt 7mo agoMore like signaling that a specific human wrote it themselves instead of one of their human assistants. The article is mostly about emails from the Epstein files so non-human authorship wasn't really a possibility at the time they were written.
