This is a copy and paste of my other comment on this post but here you go: "Amazon fused the bootrom shut" Seeing as its not a physical thing, I wonder how they did that Edit: sorry, this stuff just keeps annoying me. I'm adding more >"Amazon did ship the fix in June 2024’s Fire OS 7.3.2.9 but I didn’t update my tablet, ran 7.3.2.6, so it never got the memo." Memo? It's a software update. >"Then I gave it the pep talk:" As if this specific pep talk were a ubiquitous thing we all know about >"Claude had taken me as far as it was ever going to be allowed to go." Oddly authoritative, you don't really know how far it would go >Kimi announces the find, and hedges its own odds in the same breath: “per-attempt success is probabilistic (single-digit-to-low-double-digit percent is typical).” I stayed anyway. First off "KIMI ANNOUNCES THE FIND" is very unlikely to have been said by a human. And next,the 'I stayed anyway' part. Where did you stay? Where were you going to go otherwise? >The exploit work itself was the best television I’ve seen in years. Probably the easiest to tell it's AI. Watching words on a screen is not television. It would be comparable to a BOOK

This seems excessive, the author outright admits that LLMs were used, but some of your critiques can just as well be explained by a lack of familiarity with certain expressions or terminology. For example, (software/e) fuses are a common thing spoken about in the context of Android custom roms and rooting, typically re rollbacks. The term is used as such in the XDA thread the article links to in the same paragraph. "not getting the memo" and "something being the best television in years" are also two very common expressions. Both are used beyond literal notes or TV. This blunt bashing of phrases makes me (and surely others) not want to share thoughts on the internet. Because apparently trying to not sound like a textbook, or in some cases even trying to write proper English, gets you labeled as LLM. Does this really discourage the LLM-assisted writers more than those that would use these specific phrases naturally? I doubt it, the former will probably just obfuscate it.

  No, its AI. But your standard of required proof cannot be met. You can always point to any particular example and say, oh a human could say that. Yes, one odd phrasing could be attributed to that. Multiple per paragraph, and it's no longer a viable explanation. How much LLM text do you actually consume on the daily?
