Has this become a ‘smell’? I tend to start my HN comments that are going be negative with versions of this, or my habitual “Genuine question, ..”; but if this is going to flag readers’ internal LLM-detector I will have to find some other way to indicate I’m actually interested in a dialogue (versus the shit posting that a more brief reply might signal).

I was talking with a junior at the office today about LLM output and mentioned em dashes, to which responded “oh, I thought that was just where formatting for hyphens was going, I guess I learned something from the AI writing instead of the other way around” and god, his acceptance of it was just deprrsssing.



Yes, they say genuinely and honestly a lot. Because RLHF thinks that means they're genuine and honest.
