This is written like AI...
Because it is AI. It's everywhere now. I've even got replies on hexbear and lemmygrad written by AI. Outsourcing thinking to the machine is the future I guess...
Everyone was told that they sucked at communicating and that we need to add a computer between the people to better translate as if the computer is somehow perfect at it.
Just yet another pointless middleman
It sucks that every time I see an em dash now I'm like hmmmm
That em dash in particular isn't the chatgpt style. But when someone relies heavily on lists of three, that's a red flag for me.
How do you know?
I'm not the person you responded to but when you read enough LLM output certain things just start to smell funny. It's hard to put my finger on it exactly but I am 100% convinced it is at least partially written by AI. The "No X. No Y. No Z." part jumps out at me, as does the "pretend exposure equals injustice" line, and the not-quite-sensical comparison to a spreadsheet, and the em dash at the end, and the structure of the last sentence...
I think learning to recognize AI output today is very similar to this comic: https://xkcd.com/1015/
You are right, it's not quite sensical, that entire sentence or two around the spreadsheet part especially, and just the choices of words, it's like talking to a scammer on email that speaks english well, but not perfect, and not as a first language, the way they use words you can tell it's not someone from the area.
"dumping files, parading names, laying out rape and pedophilia like it's a damn spreadsheet... then...no arrest, no perp walks...
It is off, no one would use those phrases in that manner, I can't believe I didn't spot it at first read, I have to learn to look for it, and suspect everything. now.
Yeah, it's super uncanny because it looks real at first glance, and then you read it again and again and more things are just a little bit off about it, but it's seemingly so close to something a real person could write.
