odd you would spend so long researching this, yet choose not to write it yourself. The LLM tone is tacky and distracting.

If just one of any number of millenarian cults live up to their promise then in 5-10 years we can play any game we want with Jesus up in heaven.

Maybe it isn't deliberate! I was asking out of curiosity. This reads as extremely LLM-y to me, so if it was purely human-written I am curious about the process.

What did you mean by "they will be as easy with it as you are with the light switch you never once thought about"? What does it mean to be easy with a light switch?

> "they will be as easy with it as you are with the light switch you never once thought about." This metaphor doesn't really feel coherent. > "What is dying is acquaintance." This is a very odd topic sentence.

It is interesting that your recent posts have much more LLM style tics than your post on the same site from 2023. Are you deliberately imitating LLM writing quirks?

I stopped reading at "The policy correlate of the vocabulary theft is equally clean." Please write your own blog posts; if I wanted to listen to Claude ponder about the crypto market I would have prompted it myself.

LLM translations of non-LLM text don't generally look as bad as this does. Many of the LLM-y traits -- inappropriate overuse of bolding and em-dashes, aggressively punchy sentences, and an essay that seems artifically stretched out to

Writing tip: you do not need to have LLMs expand your ideas into a longer form for you. Spreading out your ideas across a longer post does not make them better.

I said one of those things (sort of) but not the other. I am not sure why you are speaking as if "some people say x, and others say not x" is a gotcha. I am aware that many people say many different things.

I am not sure if you are serious? It really has nothing to do with being grammatically correct. The article is chock-full of all of the most common LLM tells. The aggressive use of negative parallelism, filler adjectives like "deeply&q

That's interesting! I have tried to get false positives from pangram and failed, so I trusted it a bit more than any of the others, although I generally just rely on my own intuition. I am curious what your false positive samples looke

The sentence construction, choice of vocabulary, and continually breathless tone are all clear indicators this was written by an llm and barely edited. I threw part of it into pangram to get a second opinion: https://www.pangram.

Are there examples of the outputs the LLMs under test generated? I couldn't find any detailed ones in the paper or code. The result here seems to be "Our Judge LLM gave another LLM a 21% grade for some code it generated", whi

It's a temperature difference, not an absolute temperature. If it was 50F yesterday and 100F today, that means it was 10C yesterday and 38C today.

It depends how you break up the stats. The total number of officers feloniously killed is a little higher than the number of accidental deaths for recent years, but motor vehicle crashes is typically the largest single category. https:
