can you point us towards the specific tells you're seeing in the article. I find the writing maybe LLM-cheerfull yes, but don't see classic phrase patterns.

This is a copy and paste of my other comment on this post but here you go:
"Amazon fused the bootrom shut" Seeing as its not a physical thing, I wonder how they did that
Edit: sorry, this stuff just keeps annoying me. I'm adding more
>"Amazon did ship the fix in June 2024’s Fire OS 7.3.2.9 but I didn’t update my tablet, ran 7.3.2.6, so it never got the memo."
Memo? It's a software update.
>"Then I gave it the pep talk:"
As if this specific pep talk were a ubiquitous thing we all know about
>"Claude had taken me as far as it was ever going to be allowed to go."
Oddly authoritative, you don't really know how far it would go
>Kimi announces the find, and hedges its own odds in the same breath: “per-attempt success is probabilistic (single-digit-to-low-double-digit percent is typical).” I stayed anyway.
First off "KIMI ANNOUNCES THE FIND" is very unlikely to have been said by a human. And next,the 'I stayed anyway' part. Where did you stay? Where were you going to go otherwise?
>The exploit work itself was the best television I’ve seen in years.
Probably the easiest to tell it's AI. Watching words on a screen is not television. It would be comparable to a BOOK
You need to take it as a whole. Sometimes there are obvious tells like certain phrases, but some devs think they can be clever by telling their bots to avoid those phrases using "humanizer" skills. It doesn't work though, because LLM writing has an uncanny valley quality to it that people just find offputting.
I have seen phrases with "earns its keep" a lot when comparing different algorithms and tradeoffs. "GLM-5.2 cost $21.90, worked overnight as instructed, and earned its keep twice."
