Yeah for sure, although you do see some common patterns in AI generated text because it tends to reuse same structure a lot. Like you often notice stuff like "A is not only B, but it's actually C", etc. Another tell comes from the small context size, so you end up with a bunch of independent statements that don't necessarily connect to each other. With human writing you often have an idea introduced and then developed gradually towards some conclusion. But as a whole, I agree that these are just common tropes from regular human writing, and it's pretty much impossible to definitively say something was written by a human or not.
Amusingly, image detection is kind of turning into arms race now with people figuring out techniques like adding noise perturbation that throws off the detectors.
