I'm not late if people constantly put effort into finding LLM text, or every other comment on hacker news is either about something being LLM generator.

    After seeing comments on hacker news attempt to call an article from 2015 as generated by an LLM, I have very little faith in commenters having any ability in actually detecting AI written text.

    And that's just one particularly egregious case I remember. Posters that are technical writers or use English properly get called bots quite commonly when their post history shows a writing style going back over a decade.

    But now that LLMs are causing a language drift in English users our filters of "that's an LLM" will become even more useless.
