sounds a bit like Grammarly Authorship https://www.grammarly.com/authorship "Authorship creates an originality report you can share with your professor, boss, or editor. It also lets you replay your document’s creation from the first word to the last punctuation mark so you can double-check your process."

#72I have a slightly different approach on my blog https://ezeugo.dev where my entire thought process (edits, original ideas, rewrites are a part of the actual essay). By making the event stream part of the product, it shows the process and output as one.

#73Just like we trained on human language to create LLMs, we can train on human keystrokes with a similar algorithm and spit out believable (at least statistically) "human" keystrokes generated by machine.
Except quite oddly, virtually no one has collected precise keystroke information or if they have it certainly is not public. I genuinely wonder if such a dataset exists

#74> “I didn’t think anyone would care” prevented me from writing, though A few years ago I started writing Twitter threads [0]. A few weeks ago I passed 200 total threads. When I started writing them, my thought process was: "Is anyone going to be interested in my stories/ideas??" Dear HN comment reader, I can 100% assure you of two things: 1. If you write things, at least one person will read them. 2. It is VERY hard…
It's not something I necessarily associate with "good writing". Or does the skill transcend the medium and help you write better long form content as well?

It's my personal experience at least, and since then I've never used social media attention as a gauge of the quality of my writing.

#76These are the signs. Spotting AI writings isn't as hard as people think. AI is not the savior you think it is.
Re: Proving a human wrote something
#77Overly wordy, em dashes, random things bolded, overly verbose, somewhat redundant, using "three dollar words" that the real person wouldn't use, and strange paragraph segmentation. These are the signs. Spotting AI writings isn't as hard as people think. AI is not the savior you think it is.

#78Being published on the platform is the proof of authenticity, not a png that can be copied, or a link that the reader has to check.

#79Earlier quoted context omitted.
And what's preventing you to LLM slop your next post? We believe you on internet karma?
A lot of people do, that's the point. And over time there will be zero evidence that I ever used an LLM because I haven't. Many people in real life also believe it and they can also vouch for me.
If all we're left with is "trust me bro", then we're left with nothing.

You're missing the point. If all we're left with is "trust me bro", then we're left with nothing.
