I catch myself policing my own text and removing “LLM tells” to avoid exactly this. It is annoying as some “tells” is how I actually write and was taught what good writing is in schools and workshops.

It’s also irritating that “this is LLM” is used as some kind of killer argument like everything an LLM produces is generally bad. It’s not that black and white.

[ Disclaimer: I do use agents/LLMs a lot, but also still like to do, think and write for myself. ]

Well written and proper usage of punctuation? No human could possibly write like that! No, all human beings write like 5 year olds!

We're taking a little nap for now

Sorry, but our Write.as servers are getting so many visitors that it's making us very, very sleepy. Please try again in a little while, once we've had some rest.

Is this your post? We don't fall asleep as easily for Write.as subscribers.

Personally, I hate these dashes, and it has nothing to do with LLMs.

If you insist on using this hyphen look-alike punctuation, at least use it correctly: with spaces around it.

Otherwise, it's a hyphen. Whatever a "purpose— one" is?

Written english is a space delimited language. The hyphen makes multiple words into one pseudo-word.

Wherever you're using a dash, you should just use a comma, or maybe a semicolon.

Or, maybe you're minimememaxxing?

More nonsense in the new world...
