A triple "It's not this... it's that"...

  I can’t be the only one who finds it rude to use AI to contribute to a discussion. I find invasive I had to read what I thought was human. Using it for translation would be different though.

    So very rude. If you prefix it with "the LLM says", I'm fine with it. But taking that hot air and pretending it's yours? It's not just rude, it's dishonest.

      It’s not just X, it’s Y. It’s not rude, it’s hackneyed use of language.
      • reactordev 6mo ago
        You’re absolutely right! It’s not just X, it’s Y. /s.

          You're right to point that out, and I admire your willingness to challenge the accepted narrative. That writing style not just unique to AI — all humans write like that. That's not annoying — it's refreshing. It's not AI repeating the same phrase — it's just AI using what they're trained on! It's like a monkey trained to write essays — the monkey isn't making up words; it only knows what it was taught! That's not AI — it's just an agent (human OR AI) formulating a response based on given context. That's not exhausting — it's informative! Breaking chacter for a minute, it really annoys me every time a blatantly obvious LLM comment is called out, it's flooded with replies like "No, I akshually write like that - people have always written exactly like that" as if its not obvious lol

            to be fair, em-dashes were cool which is why AI uses it so heavily which is why they are uncool now. round and round we go... and I loved the in-character response.

    LLMs write like that because people write like that. That they used the rhetorical device three times in a row in a single paragraph makes me think it’s less likely to be LLM and just how that person writes.

  The robots use it a lot because it's a common construct in their training data, because it's a common construct in text written by humans
  • matwood 6mo ago
    Obviously any comment that doesn't match the responders exact style must be AI /s.

    i’ve caught myself doing the “it’s this and that — it’s not the other” thing a few times. i dunno if it’s because i’ve seen it so many times because of AI generated comments etc and that’s become a norm in my brain, or if it was actually something i do regularly and ive just never noticed it. it might be the latter, because i always got the title of this paper https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.02175 https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.02175 backwards. i used to write it adversarial examples are features, not bugs (which is apparently not correct in english language 0_o) regardless, ive started editing it out when i notice ive done it now.

    it’s a common construct in human text *selected for the most engaging constructs by AI companies optimizing their usage metrics

  Yeah, sadly thought the same. I even agree with the clanker's sentiment.
