@stefano keep writing.... ultimately it's not about who wrote something but whether what is written had sustainable value.
@Zeal4living I will đ

I write technical articles on my blog.
AIs show up in large numbers to read them, crawl them, learn from them.
Time passes. I publish a new post.And right on schedule, someone comments:
"This was clearly written by an AI".Which is fascinating, really.
I write.
Machines read.
I keep writing.
Then humans accuse me of being the machine.At this point I am not sure if the problem is that AI sounds too human,
or that humans have forgotten what a human who actually studies sounds like.Either way, I will keep writing.
Worst case scenario, the AIs will enjoy it.
Best case scenario, one day a human will too.@stefano
I wonder: Have you ever written a false article, to poison the AI bots? -

@PeterLG I'm not a native speaker so, from time to time, I use some tools to check my sentences or grammar. When I speak or use social media, I'm more direct and make mistakes.
I've done it for years, even before the AI started to be everywhere. But I don't use AI for writing. Or, maybe, I really am an AI powered coffee maker... đ -

All of them use land, scaffolding, etc. Try to avoid using those words. It's the ones that you also see on threads/twitter posts that were clearly AI generated.

@ClickyMcTicker @PeterLG In fact, it wasn't a coincidence...

@aspenrapid thank you!

@donburnside I know. But as a non-native speaker, my vocabulary can be quite limited. The paradox is that reading those words over and over again will probably make them stick in my mind.
Writing in Italian is completely different, of course. -

Perhaps your posts are just too great to be thought of hand-written for those who haven't seen your posts before.I have seen my tech blogs crawled several times as well, but I think it's a good sign for traffic (and even my colleagues said 'oh this post is good', but they didn't know it's written by myself lol)

@Pouakai oh maybe my posts are so bad that they seem produced by an AI đ

@stefano
That makes sense. It's quite a moral dilemma. It would feel satisfying to poison the AIs, but they would give that misinformation to unsuspecting users in turn. -

Multiple people commented that it was a technique to make an AI generated article seem more human đ€Š

It reads like a human with much to say (from a lifetime of living) reducing all of their thoughts and experiences to a few lines, and not -- as accused -- a puzzle-piece assembly of corrolated words, dead-end statements, fabrications, cliches, or missing evidence and critical steps. As someone else said already it's likely your accuser is a poor writer, poor reader, and relies on AI for both.

@hackeryarn so, to sum up: if it's perfect, it's AI. If it's not perfect, it's AI. It's always AI đ

@iams exactly. There's a huge difference. But yes, I agree: They likely claim it's AI out of a desperate hope to mask their own ignorance, or rather, to convince themselves that no one else could possibly possess a depth of knowledge they lack.

@stefano there is no winning.
I didnât even know if I should be more embarrassed that people thought I would do something so shady, or less embarrassed that my blatant mistakes got blamed on AI.

@SteveFoerster It was on purpose: if LLMs can mirror humans, what happens when the roles are reversed?
