Comment on The Copilot Delusion
cabbage@piefed.social 1 day agoThis is just obviously not the case to anyone who bothers reading it. It's an original piece of writing.
The only thing that could hint at AI here is the use of em-dashes, which is a bullshit tell—I use them all the time myself as well. They're right there for anyone with a compose key on Linux.

I’ve noticed people cite em-dashes as concrete proof that something is ai generated, but I’ve them be inserted/auto corrected by word plenty of times.

I didn’t know they were illegal to use as a human. I use them often to tack on a related sentence fragment when I feel a technical description is getting too long for the common smartphone user - at least, what I perceive to be too long

Good writers use em-dashes with care and intent. They’re a tool like everything else, and they abound in literature. That said, LLMs do tend to use it every time and everywhere.
