- parpfish 1mo agotypos mean its more likely to have been made by a human.
- philipov 1mo agotypos mean it's more likely to have been made by a careless human.
- valleyer 1mo agoCertainly. But in the current social environment, being seen as (mildly) careless is less bad than being seen as someone who lets an LLM write prose for them.
- John7878781 1mo agoThat's kind of sad. I miss being an OG em dash user.
- parpfish 1mo agoi make typos constantly (seriously, check my post history). i probably have typos in my resume. i just dont know why anybody should care. the meaning is still easily parseable. i cant imagine letting something so superficial matter
- philipov 1mo agoI make typos all the time as well, on stuff I am just writing off the cuff like a forum or chat message. But when it comes to something important, don't you check it over dozens of times? hundreds of times? A mere missing semicolon will make your code not compile. How could you let a superficial typo go uncorrected once you see it? How could you not see it when it's in the most obvious spot? It suggests a certain lack of diligence; like you didn't proofread your work. What about the person that should have proofread it as a second opinion? Did this really follow a rigorous academic process at all? <- That's the first impression when the presentation is sloppy.
- mullingitover 1mo agoAt the same tiem, lately I've been inserting small typos in my writing just to signal that it's not LLM generated. Nothing is a bigger red flag than a wall of text with perfect grammar and punctuation.
- John7878781 1mo ago> Nothing is a bigger red flag than a wall of text with perfect grammar and punctuation. So you're choosing to punish well-written text?
- karolinepauls 1mo agoIt statrs with "At the same tiem" so it's consistent.
- throwaway_7274 1mo agoTypo-free text. Typo-free text used to more be likely to also be well-written, but now it’s likely not to be. But also, obviously, they’re being a gadfly for funsies.
- prepend 1mo agoThis reduces your credibility. If I was reading, I wouldn’t think “not llm,” I’d think “not detail oriented.” You may want to find some better way that doesn’t make people think less of you. Perfect grammar and punctuation is par for any publication.
- libria 1mo agoThere's Goldilocks zone for resumes where you want enough buzzwords to get past the recruiter but not so many that Hiring manager would reject you. I know what gp is saying. They want to stay credible to the general public without also bearing the over-polished and verbose hallmark of LLM.
- Ekaros 1mo agoI don't expect perfect grammar or punctuation. I expect it look like it went through traditional spellchecker. And maybe grammarchecker.
- EA-3167 1mo agoIt's hard for me to trust it when https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Aderholt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Aderholt is the chairman.
- johnpedantic 1mo agoIt's hard for me to trust anyone that whines on a forum about pedantics.
