Crazy how he doubled down by just pasting badger's answer into Chat and submitting the (hilariously obvious AI) reply: > Thanks for the quick review.

The '—' gave it away. No one types this character on purpose.

I do all the time, but might have to stop. Same with `…`.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

At some point they told ChatGPT to put emoji's everywhere which is also a dead giveaway on the original report that it's AI. They're the new em dash.

Some people actually do that on Github too. Absolute psychopaths.

It was far before ChatGPT. I remember once on a Show HN post I commented something along the line with "The number of emoji in README makes it very hard for me to take this repo seriously" and my comment got (probably righteously) downvoted to dead.

Two dashes on the Mac or iOS do it unless you explicitly disable it, I think.

The AI is trained on human input. It uses the dash because humans did.

Spent 15 minutes the other day testing a patch I received that claimed to fix a bug (Linux UI bug, not my forte). The “fix” was setting completely fictitious properties. Someone has plugged the GitHub issue into ChatGPT, spat out an untested answer. What’s even the point…

Ultimately it's always about someone somewhere getting a bigger boat.

Wow even the followup response apologising for noise was full of noise. It finishes "I can follow up ... blah blah blah ... should I find an issue" Tone deaf and utterly infuriating.

For me the followup was the most obviously AI bit of writing - it's exactly the tone you get when the AI admits it's been utterly wasting your time.

"I heard you were extremely quick at math" Me: "yes, as a matter of fact I am" Interviewer: "Whats 14x27" Me: "49" Interviewer: "that's not even close" me: "yeah, but it was fast"

There should be a language that uses "Almost-In-Time" compilation. If it runs out of time, it just gives a random answer.
