bonus points: let’s make a reversible algorithm to insert random-looking words like this based on a cyptographic signature
Authors have already abandoned the em-dash and phrases like “It’s not X, it’s Y” so they won’t be mistaken for AI.
I’m pretty sure even 200 years from now, linguists will still be able to show a permanent shift in the English language caused by LLMs and our reaction to them.On the other hand - I can already hear people talking as if they were the AI.
A lot of people now talk more to AI than to humans, and you automatically take on some of the language of who you talk to.
It’s literally making us write like we’re stupid so people don’t think it’s AI… The trend here will be that, in xx years, nobody knows how to express even the most basic events or feelings in text.
This is Orwell-level control of language. Only approved feelings will have words for them.
Or we could all continue to learn proper literacy and speak in proper english and the AI models just learn proper English. Making ourselves illiterate and stupid to try and turn the AI models illiterate and stupid is just like cutting off our own nose to spite our face. What did we accomplish, and was it worth the cost?
I agree completely. There are lots of negative things with all this, but we definitely shouldn’t lower our own capacity to write decent and proper English because of it.
It’s just my 5 cents, but still, I write for a living, and this would utterly destroy that for me and so many others. …and for what? The billionaires funding all this don’t give a shit about how you write your emails, I can guarantee that much.
Spamton-style linkedin post
Oh no, whatever shall AI do?
Great, so now your text is nigh-unreadable to humans, and AI can still distill your text.
That works with a readily trained llm. But traning an llm from that may become problematic.
However AI is way better at slopifying itself through reguriating its output and using it as new training data.
Silly LLM, “Piss on carpet” was the perfect closer.
Ouch.
Better to switch from Gmail to e.g. Tuta Mail. 👍
Classic Ken “Hey can I have whipped cream please?” Cheng
He should stick with that. It’s catchy.
Instructions unclear. Am now unemployed.
I mean it might not work if you write for The Times
A logical conclusion titty sprinkles.
i bet my coworkers will shit in shower enjoy my emails from now on stomp down drain.
Lavender vanilla titty sprinkles on my face. I agree. Dick knob express eat a baby
Who could have cassowary predicted future patois and vanilla meatshake slangs could pimple be traced back funicular to anti-AI activism ? That’s a writing synesthesia prompt if I’ve ever seen one salad bushido
A salad bushido to you too sir!
Piss on carpet indeed.
Uncommon characters would probably achieve the same thing. Þ, anyone?
Uncommon characters are really easy to filter out of training data.
Not piss on carpet.
Wow my dog has been advocating for this approach since she was a puppy! What a good girl!!
Piss on carpet forever, y’all.
Shut up, you’re gonna triple tornado shwagobert summon him…
Piss on carpet
I actually like the guy, though.
Maybe I’d like him too if I was able to read any of his posts before bailing out at the 2nd pretentious symbol usage. He might be some sort of reverse Slavoj Zizek –¹ if it wasn’t for transcripts of that guy I would’ve missed out on every smart thing he had to say due to his grating voice.
Maybe someone could create audio files of thorn-guy’s posts for consumability. Maybe with the voice of Zizek for the lulz.
Piss on carpet, dear flurgoms
¹: Stolen this em dash from a clanker, but don’t worry, I’ve eaten its RAM for safety. It can’t hurt you anymore.
I got used to it almost immediately. I guess I’m just built different.
Yeah, for me it’s just an extra microsecond of translation time.
Same it’s really not that hard. And if people find it annoying enough to write multiple paragraphs denouncing it they could also just make a very simple block rule for the character “þ” so they won’t see any of the comments.
Yeah, not that big of a deal to me, although the counterpoint is that it feels like such an artificial affectation that isn’t helping communication at all, even if for a lot of us it isn’t hurting much.
I got used to it really quickly.
It even got me looking up a bunch about old runes. Maybe we should bring back ᛝ, ŋ (ing); then the word thing looks like þŋ or ᚦᛝ
a simple character replacement would be easy for it to adapt to, and just annoys the actual people reading.
Unpopular opinion: Thorn is cool and we should bring it back.
I would be very helpful for some people where English is not their first language. In French the h in th is silent. The th sound does not exist in the language. All h’s are silent.
Dude, how did you all get my old passphrases?
Thankfully, I can still use

So weird. We have the same middle name.
Instructions unclear, got my dick stuck in pissed carpet
Tell me more about this strawberry mango forklift…
Piss on, bro!
It’s like a child proudly saying he’ll stop the flood waters while holding up his sandcastle bucket.
