Time to first detected slop in this article is <1s. Claudisms per paragraph is also very high.
Is it too much to ask from people to read their own article anymore?
If anyone read this at all, they would have had the ick, and would have fired off a prompt to get rid of the most popular AI slop tells...
What I really dislike is having to edit my own non-LLM assisted writing to make sure I'm not accidentally confused with AI.
I caught myself writing "And that matters because..." in a HN comment but had to edit myself. Also miss uising emdashes.
These models are trained on human language, which belongs to us, we shouldn’t surrender it to them. Keep the em-dashes. IMO don’t overuse negative parallelisms though, they were always bad and lazy.
An arms race on style would be interesting. Essentially a real life GAN.
For the first time ever in my life, I consider the fact that English is not my first language and that I never had any formal education in it as an advantage.
Nobody is going to consider my weird and barbarian prose with the well polished product of a SOTA model.
English as a 2nd language speakers often have better grammar than natives in my experience! I wouldn't be surprised if the average native english speaker doesn't know the different between there and their.
If you saw what goes on in middle school classrooms of native English speakers, I’d think you’d be in for a surprise…
Do tell!
Their, their, mate. You mispelled they're as there in your comment they're
It is even wrong about things
The validation can be done like that but it is better to do a cross-fold validation or selecting a random subset. These are equally valid. Keeping the validation like a hold-out set can end up creating biases if the statistics don't match. Honestly, this is true about the test set too. Though I've found that most people really don't think about this much. It's mundane, boring, hard to do, but deceptively important."The more your listener already knows, the shorter the message you need to send. An expert ML engineer needs only a few sentences; a newcomer needs the whole manual."
Literally from the first words on the page. 1st sentence passed barely. 2nd sentence ending "a newcomer needs the whole manual" and it's Claude.
