I tried feeding a random CNN news I found [1], with the first few paragraph as follows:

"London (CNN)The interminable US process for picking a President has its faults but as a democratic exercise it outshines the closed-door system being used in Britain to choose a new prime minister.

Theresa May resigned as Conservative leader last week after an ill-starred premiership and triggered a party leadership race that will select the next resident of 10 Downing Street by late July."

as I added more paragraphs it started to shift from "quite sure this was written by a machine." to "quite sure this was written by a human.".

Does this mean the model has learned to take advantage of short text being generated by machine while longer are human written text. A similar effect can be replicate from this article as well[2]
