"Offer it something it has never seen, and it doesn't light up. It corrects you. To a system built to predict the expected, the genuinely new is indistinguishable from a mistake.
The pushback is soft, and constant:
Did you mean: the familiar thing, offered in place of yours."
Ouch, that's scary to think of.
Also why does it read like its written by ChatGPT?
- golly_ned 3mo agoEven if something wasn't written by ChatGPT, I'm supposing ChatGPT's influence on writing has been so strong that (1) any typical reader of text on the internet will have ingested a lot of ChatGPT writing habits in their own writing, and (2) that any reader of ChatGPT text is so habituated to those writing habits that even non-ChatGPT generated text appears similar to ChatGPT generated text.
- Schlagbohrer 3mo agoI have started doing an XKCD style trolling online occasionally- writing like ChatGPT, but, I'm writing it out myself :-D (Don't worry, I would never do that here on Hackernews... ;-) )
