Pangram sucks

- Nition 1mo agoI've never seen a false positive from Pangram for human-written text of 300+ words.
- sam_lowry_ 1mo agoPangram sucks by seeding fear.
- zbentley 1mo agoSay more? I’ve found it quite useful and not a source of fear. It’s effective at calling out disrespect (human to human communication where one party stops participating as a human), and has been effective for me in writing my own communications more crisply and carefully
- sam_lowry_ 1mo agoFear of being tagged as AI even if you write the text yourself. For me personally, it's fear to use – and —. I have my versions of XKB keyboard layouts that handily map these but I don't use them anymore. Nor do I use emoji, because some 18-6 months ago AU output abused emoji.
- zbentley 1mo agoI honestly don’t think those are going to get you flagged as mostly-AI or with high confidence. On anything longer than a sentence I’ve found the false positive rate to be perfectly reasonable.

- no_multitudes 1mo agoPeople sometimes tell lies on the internet. This is definitely AI-generated.

- DonHopkins 1mo agoPangram sucks as much as humans who think they're perfect llm generated text detectors, too. As qarl2 wrote below: >See how perverse this "I hate the way AI sounds" thing is? >In the end everyone accusing everyone of being AI. Which — as we all know — was trained on how humans write.

- no_multitudes 1mo agoPlease give one example of a long-form verifiable non-adversarial pangram false positive (e.g., something written before 2022 that gives a result other than 100% human.)
