I find it interesting that AI writes very high level, which is a trait that seems to be valued by upper management (VP, CEO level).
I think at some point someone will figure out that AI would sound more natural if it didn’t write so perfectly, and they’ll try to make AI sound hip and casual, and I’m almost certain AI will still fail to be convincingly casual.
I don’t worry about that. There are other markers of AI that are much more reliable:
And here’s how you recognize AI:
High-schoolers turning a paper on a subject they know nothing about often fluff up their paper - at least when students still wrote their papers themselves - and hit 1. and 2., but rarely 3.
Good writers always hit 3. They can be terse or verbose, and they may or may not hit 1., but never 2. or 4.
Internet writers don’t write like journalists. Only journalists writing for a journal that happens to also publish on the internet write like journalists. Internet writers don’t quite hit 3, knowledgeable ones don’t hit 2., and almost none of them ever hit 1. Or said another way, when you read something about Linux networking that looks like an Atlantic op-ed, it’s AI.
Only AI hits 1., 2. and 3. AI almost always writes in a tone and form that doesn’t befit the venue.
As for 4., if you want an example of this, try to search “NFC unlock” on DDG or Bing (same AI-laden Microsoft trash search engine): you will find scores of perfectly-written articles that explain in painful details how you should buy NFC tags (they don’t say which), program them (they don’t say how), then present the tags to your device (they don’t say what devices) to program them to unlock upon presenting the tags.
If you know anything about NFC, you know this is all shades of wrong. But amazingly, each article on the subject is many pages long, perfectly written, and there are countless such articles.
As long as sideloading is a thing, I don’t use the Google app store. And I don’t install malware like Instagram - not that it’s very likely to work on my deGoogled Android cellphone.
Of course, now that fucking Google has declared war on deGoogled ROMs, what I’m saying here is pretty much a dead-end. But as of today, it’s still an option.
Fuck Google.
Also, in case it bore repeating: fuck Google.
And finally, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that Google can go fuck itself.
Stop telling me I’m easily offended! It’s triggering!
Christians are generally pro abuse - abuse of women, children…
So Trump is literally preaching to the choir.
You know what’s really sad?
I can’t rely on simply reading the title anymore. I have to check the URL to figure out when a piece is an Onion joke or reality.
Because reality has become weirder than The Onion.
The future is now the present and it is both kinds of dystopias: as in all fascist regimes, the private sector is in cahoots with the regime. The US is no different.
Yeah for sure, but there’s always something off that screams fake.
