As a side note, you can tell this wasn't written by an AI by the first sentence:
> mommy, I heard you got cooked! I heard that a robot solved the math problem you worked on for your whole career! OOF!
My 8yo talks exactly like that. I could totally imagine him saying this, the same way, at the dining room table.
I asked ChatGPT "pretend you're an 8/9 year old today. how would you insult your mom about having her job be replaced by an AI?", and the responses it offered were:
> “Mom, AI took your job because apparently even robots were like, ‘Yeah… we can do this better.’”
> “Mom, congratulations! You got replaced by a computer. Even Siri has a job now and you don’t!”
> “Mom, AI took your job? Dang. I guess even a robot looked at your work and said, ‘I got this.’”
> “Don’t worry, Mom. You can still be useful… like teaching the AI how to make my lunch.”
All of these seem to have a vaguely Millennial flavor, aside from being pretty awkward and mechanical roasts. Trust the children and linguistic drift to be the best AI detector.
i added "use current trendy lingo" and the results were a bit less mechanical sounding. one of them included "cooked", another had "negative aura".
i used the free google ai: (deleted the examples... but they were vaguely close to what i hear my grandkids say.)
edit: neat, insta-flagged despite hundreds of non-ai comments that have never been flagged. i would have thought that hn would use some heuristics in their ai detection but i suppose not.
