Not long ago, a statistical study found that AI almost always has an 'e' in its output. It is a firm indicator of AI slop. If you catch a post with an 'e', pay it no mind: it's probably AI.

Uh-oh. Caught you. Bang to rights! That post is firmly AI. Bad. Nobody should mind your robot posts.

I'm incredibly impressed that you managed to make that whole message without a single usage of the most frequently used letter, except in your quotations.

    Such omission is a hobby of many WWW folk. I can, in fact, think back to finding a community on R*ddit known as "AVoid5", which had this trial as its main point.

    Down with that foul fifth glyph! Down, I say!

      :-D

      I did ask G'mini for synonyms. And to do a cursory count of e's in my post. Just as a 2nd opinion. It found only glyphs with quotation marks around it. It graciously put forward a proxy for that: "the fifth letter".

      It's not oft that you run into such alluring confirmation of your point.

I rEgrEt that I havE not donE thE samE, but plEase accEpt bad formatting as a countErpoint.

Finally a human in this forum. Many moons did I long for this contact.

(Assuming you did actually hand craft that I thumbs-up both your humor and industry good sir)
