The use of “ instead of ", two different types of hyphens/dash, specific wording and sentence construction are clear signs that the whole comment was produced by chatGPT. How much of it was actually yours (people sometimes just want LLM to rewrite their thoughts), we will never know but it's an output of an LLM.


Well, I use an iPhone and “ is default on my keyboard.

Tell me, why should I not use a hyphen for hyphenated words?

I was schooled is British English where the spaced endash - is preferred.

Shall I go on?


I'm using ChatGPT daily to correct wording and I work on LLMs, construction and the wording in your comment is straight from ChatGPT. I looked at your other comments, and a lot of them seem to be LLM output. This one is an obvious example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44404524

And anyone can go back to the pre LLM era and see your comments on HN.

You need to understand that ChatGPT has a unique style of writing and overuses certain words and sentence constructions that are statistically different from normal human writing.

Rewriting things with an LLM is not a crime, so you don’t need to act like it is.
