This site has gone full Tower of Babel. I've seen at least a thousand "AI comment" callouts on this site in the last month and at this point I'm pretty sure 99% of them are wrong.

In fact, can someone link me to a disputed comment that the consensus ends up being it's actually AI? I don't think I've seen one.

You know how the chicken sexers do their thing, but can't explain it? Like they can't write a list of things they check for. And when they want to train new people they have them watch (apprentice style) the current ones, and eventually they also become good at doing it themselves?

It's basically that. I can't explain it (I tried listing the tells in a comment below), but it's not just a list of things you notice. You notice the whole message, the cadence, the phrases that "add nothing". You play with enough models, you see enough generations and you start to "see it".

If you'd like to check for yourself, check that user's comment history. It will become apparent after a few messages. They all have these tells. I don't know how else to explain it, but it's there.

> You know how the chicken sexers

That's certainly a novel and confusing entry in my search history.

I think this might be one of the first times I didnt notice it, but just look through the comment history of https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=jackfranklyn , they all look the same.

Yeah on a second look GP might actually be on to something here. Jackfranklyn only makes top level comments, never dialogs with anyone, and I count at least 3 instances of "as someone who does this for a living" that are too seperated in scope to be plausibly realistic.

This article reads like AI

“Comment I don't like is a bot” is the new “Comment I don’t like is a product of the HN hivemind conspiracy”.

The comment isn't saying anything controversial so why would I dislike it or want an excuse to throw shade on it?

It's a bot. Period.

You might notice I wasn't responding to your specific claim about a particular comment but to a later post by a different poster commenting on a wider phenomenon. Perhaps stop trying so hard to insert the idea you want to argue against into posts where it doesn't actually exist just so you can have something to argue about. (Especially given there are many direct responses to your post actually arguing with your claim that you could instead argue with.)
