also me when people accuse me of being ai slop for using em dashes just because big tech trained their models by stealing authors work.
me_irl
All posts need to have the same title: me_irl it is allowed to use an emoji instead of the underscore _
I like to use em, but I'm too lazy to type them so I just use two regular dashes (--) which I guess I haven't seen an LLM do yet.
Its actually wild to me that people who use LLMs don't edit the output to make it look like it was not generated.
For me, the greatest giveaways are the emojis and bad formatting.
iOS automatically converts two endashes into an emdash for whatever that’s worth
There was a comment that was a list of 15 items and some chud called it AI slop. Because it was an organized list?
What an astute observation! You are absolutely right, many people can confuse well written responses as AI and that can be frustrating. Simplifying the language is a great way to make your text seem more personal and human. Let me know if you need help with anything else!
I don't know if I've ever seen a MASH meme, much less with Major Charles Emerson Winchester III. What a time to be alive.
At this point I'd just consider it a compliment when someone accuses me of being ai. Oh you mean I spelled everything correctly and sound like a textbook? Thank you very much.
AIs are monotone though
They'll parrot back whatever attitude you're talking to them in. I've seen screenshots of other people using them and the way they were talking was completely different from how they talk to me. I also get the monotone informational version.
It can get really fucked up actually and contributes to people humanizing the chatbot.
Happened to my daughter: She's studying abroad, with an English speaking course of mostly non-native speakers (she is also no native English speaker, but has a better command of the language than most Americans). Co-students were actually asking her which AI she was using because her papers were so good...
I have seen people have this tendency to be unable to believe that anyone they know can actually do something they find difficult.
That's probably the same type of people that see some highly acclaimed work (from someone they don't know) and thrusting celebrity status onto the creator.
Perfect choice on Major Winchester for this meme.
Thanks. When I was thinking of it, he was the first one that came to mind.
My MIL was in town for Thanksgiving, and there was a lot of MASH watched.
Holds up surprisingly well. I like it more now than I did in my childhood.
I spent so much time in academia. A lot of us are trained to make objective and impersonal analysis (such as avoiding the use of personal pronouns "I", "we", "us" etc.), which I did not realise before sounds dispassionate and cold to laymen. Someone asked me if I'm a bot because apparently I sounded like an anime character. A couple of times, I get into arguments because normal folks would accuse me of "yOu aRe mAkInG ExCuSeS tO TyRaNtS!!" for making a realpolitik analysis of a situation (/r/geopolitics in Reddit is heavily derided for this by average Redditors).
Academically trained folks are ingrained to be conscious of bias and rather encouraged to be more descriptive with the analysis, and less with prescriptive. Otherwise we'd get accused of bias. But when academics do voice out their opinions based on evidence and careful study, they'd be accused of bias. I probably don't need to elaborate how often educational institutions are accused of being left or liberal. News flash: academics do not come in with inherent bias towards left/liberal thinking, it's just that their study led them to be more left leaning. Wait until I tell people I am an advocate for a world government by giving UN more power. I might be accused as a globalist bot.
i dislike, but accept, academic style. my argument against it is that the total reliance on passive voice makes research FAR less accessible to people for whom english is a second languange and neurodivergent people. older academics tell me i'm being anti-intellectual. younger academics tell me they don't know what passive voice is and don't believe it exists.
i don't really… know what to make of that divide, if i'm being honest
That's why I fill my points with insults and constant profanities. Can't fucken accuse my borderline insane and blatantly violent rhetoric of being bots because im pretty sure my pros are bit shit. Also could a bot do this, you can now feel that post burn sensation on your tongue.
Me when I have to interact with a website slowly because my natural rate is too fast and it triggers a bot detection warning
If this format is original it's genius
I can't verify that it's original, but I've never seen it before.
Ellipsis...use ellipsis often. AI seldom, if ever, uses them...So your responses don't have the look and feel of AI.
that's why i write with the stylistic frustrations that only a human could truly pull off
Hear me out: intentional spellign mistakes.
