A simple way to prove that a piece of text, a post, a message, was written by me.
Yes, the burden should not lie on the author, and you could argue it's not even relevant. Still, the default has shifted and there's a refreshing feeling when you're forced to choose your own words.
This is not perfect. You can still find ways to have a machine write a text into this box. But what's guaranteed is the time: writing a message takes the time a human would actually need.
At the very least writtenhuman.com is a statement that the problem it's tackling is real. One with the potential to become a global crisis.

It's an interesting idea, kudos.
Sadly, this will always be a game of cat and mouse. I wonder if it was ever avoidable for the internet to become a hundred of such games at once, between advertisers and ad blockers, trackers and browsers, hackers and developers, search engines and SEO experts...
If your concept took off, someone will make a program that inputs the LLMs text like a human would. It might still take some time (if it isn't possible to hack the timing records client-side), you'd probably have to get busy detecting multiple connections from the same IP, and then they'd work around it...
this is interesting but it would be much better if this was like a native keyboard or something or a web plugin on browser that does this automatically instead of having to manually do it everytime. cool idea though but its an ask to open a different page just to write a post

The thing is no matter what you do it's always extra work. There are similar projects that provide sdk's that you can integrate. The goal for this project was to create something simple and to make it a topic.
Thanks for checking it out :)
I tried to verify your text and your website says "DOES NOT MATCH THIS RECEIPT"
yeah the thing that isn't clear you need to include the stats part in the brackets.
Even with the stats it doesn't work. Maybe hacker news comments don't preserve whitespace or something.
ummm just tested, works: <copy>A simple way to prove that a piece of text, a post, a message, was written by me.

Still doesn't work for me. Maybe it's line endings or something. I'm on Safari on macOS.
Oh I see, yeah I'm actually experiencing the same on mobile. I'll add some trims and remove line breaks for validation. Also include the stats and reconstruct them before submission so only the text needs to be pasted. thx for the feedback!
