I knew this was a clickbait when it’s gizmodo, but oof
The mods in the Wired story explain how they detect AI content, and unfortunately their methods boil down to “It’s vibes.”
Hey man, if the vibes aren’t right, it’s probably AI. Uncanny Valley and shit, bruh. Seems legit.
If AI is modeled after intellectuals, there will inevitably be a swath of non-intellectuals who conclude the post title… because the idea of intellectuals predating AI is unthinkable to them.
No it isn’t, shut the fuck up
You’re absolutely right!
Oh—I’m sorry. Here’s the correct answer.
And I kid you not, AI likes to use “and I kid you not” a lot!
What logically follows is that I need to be as weird and eccentric as possible in order to counteract the memetic contagion of a lovecraftian averaging machine. I bet I could make a cult out of this!
Summon the thorn character guy
It’s a catch-22 - try to be more unique, in an effort not to lose your humanity, but in doing so keep feeding the machine which subsists on creativity. A human-AI ouroboros.
I prefer to see it as a Human-AI centipede.
I have all these odd pauses in my speech and just realized they’re em dashes.
I’m one of those deranged few who actually used em dashes in my normal typing habits. Not super often the way LLMs are prone to, maybe once a month tops. Alt+0151 or Compose, dash, dash, dash.
Now a find myself reluctant to use what I felt was a useful bit of punctuation out of concern people might think what I’m typing was LLM generated. It sucks.
I always just used – instead, because I’m too lazy to remember weird codes and I don’t know what a compose key is, but the intent is the same.
Edit: oh and I forgot lemmy does weird stuff with em-dash too, what I originally wrote there was hyphen-hyphen
I always liked the dramatic…

…pause.
I’ve never used em-dashes to represent them. Am I doing it wrong?
Your brain runs on ChatGPT now. Better start eating a diet of NVidia GPUs.
Pauses are much better than filler words.
People have been speaking with punctuation since language was invented. If you only now realize that pause is an em-dash, that’s on your schooling. :-p
AI is writing about itself.
So… What about autistic people sounding like LLMs before LLMs were a thing?
Autistic people were the original LLMs. I don’t care how much data you shove into it, there is still no LLM on Earth that knows more about trains than an autistic guy who knows everything about trains.
The difference is the autistic person isn’t completely sycophantic and might be completely disgusted that you don’t know the first production date of the C40-8W.
That’s a very thoughtful thought! Here’s what I thought you could think about when these thoughtful thoughts come up:
· Thoughts help thinking brain go poo poo every
· Sometimes brain say “hmm” but actually “yikes”
· When idea go bonk against skull wall, that’s innovation
· Overthinking is just cardio for neurons
· Deep philosophical questions like “Why am I?” and “How?” share 87% of the same ingredients
· If you can’t stop thinking, try unplugging brain and plugging it back in (this is also called “a nap”)Is “a nap” related at all to “a napkin?”
Nope, “an ap” is not akin to “an apkin” …
Ape skin?
App King!
Using a larger vocabulary doesn’t make you sound like an llm, it’s more about the tone.
You are absolutely right!
I am horribly mistaken! :)
The worst part - through human communication, texts on the internet, etc. - it seems to propagate towards people who don’t even use AI.
I myself have strong aversion to it, but found myself using much more bullet points, cliché constructions, and yes - even em-dashes - when I don’t actively pay attention to how I write.
I’ve always been sensitive to language around me, naturally adapting to the environment around - and now it backfires.
As someone who has used dashes for decades, this recent trend bothers me.
My huge ADHD sentences love the dash action, but with AI using it now people think I use it to write.
I see the point being made; however, how the fuck else might I jam several clauses into one compound megasentence - overwrought and peppered with purple prose - if not with multiple types of punctuation? Should I summarize, streamline? Clearly not: all thoughts should be expressed in full, replete with all irrelevant details. Perhaps remove unneeded, intra-sentence explanations and asides (like this one, which I’m quite fond of) of details obvious to the reader?! Never!
No AI could write with matching convolution — especially when, unlike me, it cannot do so on the toilet.
Your eloquence strikes me as unnecessary but beautiful - truly, it is in human nature to overcomplicate, but in such a special way that makes it unique and almost spiritual instead of verbose and obtuse. I compliment your decisiveness and ability - a distinctively human ability - to see through this thin line and turn your toilet habit into something so profound. Yet, I cannot help but note that taking out the phone while unloading your bowel - or bladder, for that matter - is yet another symptom - a very alarming symptom - of the modern age interfering with our ability to distance ourselves from a neverending steam of distractions, one that comes hand in hand with modern AI-powered enshittification. So, if you’d like to truly reconnect with your roots, to find human in yourself - perhaps it might be bright to create an intimate space where the only connection you experience is a connection with yourself.
Perhaps, I couldn’t express myself as vividly as you do; for that I apologize; yet, I’m not even operating in the domain of my mother tongue, so I hope I can be forgiven. Besides, one other distinctively human thing is to try regadless.
Hahaha, now even the source of new data is starting to be poisoned by LLMs…good luck trying to outproduce LLM slop to train LLMs…and ending up with goop real fast.
Goop loop

So perversely chatbots are increasing people’s vocabulary because people read so few books anymore and most of their word usage comes from what they read online?
What’s more than that, chatbots use those words because writers use those words. That’s journalist vocab. And bots were trained on articles and written speech. I think you’re right, people just weren’t reading anything.
That’s kinda how I took it. Be funny if language evolved back into flowery Victorian speech.
Indeed good sir, that would be quite comical.
It’s not flowery though, just bland.
Most likely, yeah.
Right, thats it. Switch it all off. Burn it down. Right now.
