You can break him. I have faith.
Break him the way he deserves to be broken, Faith.
Getting strong AI vibes in this one. Two “this is x not y” comments in a row. Could only be more AI coded if it were “this isn’t x but y.”
Idk if it’s the prof or the poster but this series is expiring quickly.
I remember reading an article about a month ago about how Kenyan writers were getting mad about being mistaken for AI because that’s just how they write, and the Faith emails are all from Kenya.
I’m not saying it’s not AI but that might be the reason why they sound that way.
— consistently—
What kind of person — in academia or otherwise — actually uses em-dashes?
✋
I love your username. Capys are so adorable. I wish it was ethical to keep them as pets.
Thank you 😊 they are — I love their chill attitude. I make do quite well with the micro version although guinea pigs are, justifiably, more skittish.
It’s a great punctuation. You could use commas, but emdash is nice.
It is, isn’t it?
I prefer parentheticals, but unless absolutely necessary, I try to write more simply because if I write how I actually think, it starts to get all John Sturat mill run-on sentence-y
I overuse the fuck out of parentheses. Emdash is helping me get over that, but I can relate.
AI learned off people’s works. So a lot of people used to use them in writing, it seems.
Yes, in professional papers and journalism which is prevalant in training datasets.
I wonder what the venn diagram of “professors” and “people who write papers” is like 🤔
From the TikTok profile it seems they’re all Kenyan, so they might be used to different sort of phrasing. I know some people have thought I was AI because I’m not a native speaker and used “odd words” and sentence structure.
I’ve been steeped in AI for about 6-7 years. It’s hard to tell in a brief comment like yours but it doesn’t read as AI to me. Not sure where people get that vibe but it doesn’t show here.
Given multiple paragraphs a lot of tells can accumulate if there isn’t a human carefully curating and editing. This one is borderline. I’m not sure by any means, but it hits my skepticism zone.
I think it was just odd word choices and sentence structure that made it sounds different and that just made some think it was written by AI. Similarly I’ve been accused of being pretentious or in one case “speaking like an anime villain” when I was just using the words I was taught in school. I didn’t know they weren’t in common use anymore hah
Forsooth! I love writing that way and reading similar. It makes social media read almost literary. I’m vexed that people would prefer to read comments that stray nary an inch beyond third grade vernacular.
However it can read a little pretentious, which is why I like to drop in a few fuck-your-mothers or whatnot in to provide a little grounding.
Own that shit and stand out, my brother! (In a non-gender-assuming sense of the word.)
Does AI use odd words and sentence structure? I think it does the opposite unless instructed otherwise. It uses the most precise common words that work and the most common sentence structure.
I think people are just noticing something odd or different and attributing that to AI
Yes but that means that they’re using evidence that it’s not AI and saying that means it is AI. It’s insanity.
