Is it possible to understand this somehow, for example, with the help of drafts? Or should a person post a draft and edit it in front of the moderators?

    You can’t. The best indicator of human authorship at this point are mistakes like misspellings and poor grammar. The common advice — like looking for em-dashes — was garbage to begin with and has only become worse as LLMs evolve.

      Some people do use dashes though, and when i do some word processors automatically alter them to em dashes

      Also its mostly chatgpt as far as ive noticed

      I havent seen them all over from Mistral

    Where I typically notice it, is that the text starts repeating a few handful of points.

    The prompt will have been to write a story on those points, and because it doesn’t have much else to go off of, it will just shoehorn those exact points again and again.

    I expect this to always be a telltale sign, because if your point can be made in the length of the prompt, there’s a rather limited amount of noise it can add to that before it would have to go off-script.

    I dont, I just assume you are all robots. Nice robots, who usually say smart or nice things, but unless I can drive to a place an punch you without breaking my hand… Best to just assume yall are to avoid the disappointment later.

    As for proving to the rest of the robots that im not a robot… For Lemmy, I completely turn off spellcheck and amy grammar assistance. The frequency of errors, poorly constructed sentences and bad use of frequent AI tells is hopefully enough to validate that im beep boop not a robot.

      Completely unrelated but “beep boop!” is what I say to patients (along with appropriate gestures) to request that they show me their wristband so that I can scan it to verify dosage etc. when administering medications.

      I feel like there’s steps you could take before that one. Maybe jiggle my squishy belly for a second or two.

      True but still i expect this will be ‘patched’ in 10 years or less and i’m so worried about what will happen to literature by then

    Everyone in this thread saying it’s impossible is basically correct, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to do your best to identify ai-generated text sometimes.

    If you’re focused on identifying whether a given text is ai generated, here’s how Wikipedia does it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing

    If you’re focused on proving something you’ve written was written without ai assistance, I think your best bet is a screencast of the writing process.

    They’d have to write it in front of you. All the qualities people are describing here are just good writing or something that you can change by simply telling the LLM ‘dont write like an llm’
