This reaction feels like an llm wrote it

Just because LLMs habitually make negative comparisons doesn't mean we have to go around accusing anyone who uses them of having used an LLM.

  • I had to smile to myself when I noticed contrastive negation—with em dashes!—in a text written in the 90s. LLMs don't dictate what good writing is; people do.

    • we will almost certainly see a mass reactionary movement across disciplines to adopt styles out of distribution for LLMs, a cultural arms race that will be discussed in depth in the decades to come.
