Ugh, absolutely fucking annoying. I’ve been online since 1994. Back then, proper spelling and grammar were enforced by ‘grammar nazi’s’. If you wanted your post to be taken seriously, you had to write it properly. Because of that, I tend to write longer posts with proper grammar.
Unfortunately, not writing like a drunk koala means you now MUST be an AI.
I’ve pretty mych resorted to inserting a random typo somewhere in the comment or post so at least it looks like a human typed.
Grammar nazis were just assholes and self-described nazis. Assuming something/someone is an ai without doing any research at all (sample size 1) is also asshole behavior.
Personally, I've found that people pulling accusations of AI out of their ass to be even more annoying than the possibility that something might be AI.
Just like the people who thought they were helping by calling things fake long ago became more annoying than the possibility that the thing might be fake.
And so often when they included reasoning, it was the weakest shit, often boiling down to mistaking rare for impossible.
Or with AI, I've seen people accuse something because the grammar is too good and other idiots accusing when the grammar is too bad.
