Your inability to tell when things are AI doesn't mean other people can't.

Same phenomenon happens all the time with food or wine. One person thinks everyone is making up the subtle flavor profile comments and sneers at them. Everyone who can tell rolls their eyes. You can't convince someone that there's something they can't perceive besides just telling them.

I've had this experience with records: as a kid I rolled my eyes at people wanting to listen to music on vinyl cause obviously it was the same; as my hearing has improved I have found I can clearly tell the difference and definitely prefer it.

I didn't even comment on whether this article is AI or not. My point is that it is absurd to point at a single word as proof of something being written by AI.

  • well it's that phrase, not just the word, although the word is a tell. And it's not absurd. It is absurd to think it's absurd. You are being ignorant.

    • It's absurd to think a single word (the comment didn't even say phrase), or even a single phrase, is evidence of AI.

      Woah, you must be AI. You used "and/or" and "likely"! (See how absurd that is?)
