I hope that people realize still that LLMs will never ever be able to produce a piece like this.
This is extraordinarily written. It is etymologically out of the average.
It’s complex. Concepts intertwine and build on each other.
The linguistic choices are unusual but perfectly placed.
>>“But even idlers, try as they might, cannot ignore the passage of time. In 1911, a dozen years before Capek published his essay, Paul Lafargue and his wife committed suicide—he was 69; she was 66. His reason, it seems to me, dovetailed with his philosophy”.
“Dovetailed”.
Call me when an LLM will ever be able to pick and use such a perfect, yet statistically improbable, word
to construct such a sentence.
- gilbetron 7mo agoThis easily could be AI generated, there is little character to it, and if you told me it was AI generated, I would believe you.
- camillomiller 7mo agoYou clearly don’t understand shit about good writing.
- justonceokay 7mo agoIf you’re picking apart sentences looking for signs of AI then you’re already rotted. Address how it makes you feel and the argument being made. Determining if something’s AI generated just gives us another reason not to engage. Like solving a puzzle on the kids menu instead of eating the food on the plate
- missingdays 7mo ago> Address how it makes you feel and the argument being made. Why are you telling other people what to talk or not to talk about?
- ejoso 7mo agoHrmph I say!
- justonceokay 7mo agoIt’s ok to tell people to come correct
- tikhonj 7mo agoWe can't read everything, so we need markers of taste to figure out what is and isn't worth engaging with. AI tells are markers of drastically bad taste.
- justonceokay 7mo agoWell quibbling about em dashes is definitely in poor taste
- squidbeak 7mo agoIn what possible sense is a hackneyed word like 'dovetailed' "perfect, yet statistically improbable"? > I hope that people realize still that LLMs will never ever be able to produce a piece like this. Never is a long, long while for LLM development to catch up with hack journalism.
- kaliqt 7mo agoLLMs always could. They are simply just not asked (prompted) to speak in such a fashion, so they don’t.
