Raw LLM Responses

​@I_am_a_nice_person Joke’s on you, I’m just autistic. You’d be surprised how often I get this these days, so honestly, I kind of relate to artists right now more than ever. The real trick isn’t “don’t sound like AI.” It’s creating something an AI can’t. YouTube comments are a dime a dozen. Pretty much any comment could plausibly be generated by an LLM at this point. I’m not even sure there is a specific combination of words I could write that would definitively prove I’m not an AI, other than maybe… not going into so much detail? And even then, where’s the line? I think this is really about a broader loss of trust. If something feels too good, too aligned, or too articulate, people stop questioning how it exists and just assume the explanation that fits their expectations. In a post-truth society, reality kind of becomes whatever you decide it is. You could go through life assuming every interaction is fake. Maybe we’re in a simulation. Maybe this is the Truman Show. But the opposite extreme is just as broken. So we’re stuck in this weird middle ground where skepticism never really turns off. Personally, I default to assuming something is genuine unless I can actually prove it isn’t, but yeah, I won’t lie, my “ChatGPT detector” goes off all the time. Including on my own comments. For transparency: I do use LLMs sometimes. I just don’t let them do my thinking for me. I also have anendophasia, no inner monologue, so I’ve always had to externalize my thoughts or they vanish instantly. Talking things out, writing them down, restructuring them, that’s how I think. Using tools to help shape thoughts isn’t the same as outsourcing them. So yeah, the response is still mine. Anyway, cheers. AutisticGPT says hi.
