Ooo that’s a good one. If you changed the emdashes to periods or semicolons and did a little cleanup to the more stilted parts, I could see myself being convinced that’s human-made. I thiiiink I have a pretty good eye for recognizing LLM stuff. It’s REALLY obvious in review articles, and they’re insanely common now. They fill up the top slots of search engines.
I was looking for an article describing features of a device recently and I clicked on a good looking top-link. If you blur your eyes and look at how the text is formatted, you could already taste that it was LLM-generated. That wouldn’t even be a problem for me if the information contained within was good… It was explaining things like how to get OUT of modes without stating how to get INTO those modes to begin with, and a lot of the “opinions” were worded like they were straight out of press releases.
A page later in my search engine, I find an article with very similar information but within a few sentences, it’s extremely obvious a person with, like… passion? wrote it. I told my partner and, even being very literate and tech savvy, they guessed the wrong article as being LLM-generated.
I’m not the best at detecting LLM writing, but I do feel some folks just have a better sense for it than others.
