Comment on No room for romance when there's rising and grinding to be had!

I use AI roughly 6 hours a day or more and have probably read tens of thousands of replies from them, so I know exactly what it sounds like and what it’s voice looks like unless you prompt it heavily to avoid LLMisms. I’ve always scored extremely high on reading comprehension (which helps but isn’t predictive) and studies recently have found some people are uncannily good at detecting AI writing in double blind trials.
I’ve also called things out on AI and later on turned out to be right. It happens a lot… That’s why.

Ooo that’s a good one. If you changed the emdashes to periods or semicolons and did a little cleanup to the more stilted parts, I could see myself being convinced that’s human-made. I thiiiink I have a pretty good eye for recognizing LLM stuff. It’s REALLY obvious in review articles, and they’re insanely common now. They fill up the top slots of search engines.
I was looking for an article describing features of a device recently and I clicked on a good looking top-link. If you blur your eyes and look at how the text is formatted, you could already taste that it was LLM-generated. That wouldn’t even be a problem for me if the information contained within was good… It was explaining things like how to get OUT of modes without stating how to get INTO those modes to begin with, and a lot of the “opinions” were worded like they were straight out of press releases.
A page later in my search engine, I find an article with very similar information but within a few sentences, it’s extremely obvious a person with, like… passion? wrote it. I told my partner and, even being very literate and tech savvy, they guessed the wrong article as being LLM-generated.
I’m not the best at detecting LLM writing, but I do feel some folks just have a better sense for it than others.
