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.
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.
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. 👍

Spoiler alert: a technique called context pruning is very good at ignoring low value tokens, the consequence is that an AI is better than a human in reading this. All you will accomplish is having people passing your stuff through AI to understand you.
Most AI training data is cutoff before 2024 anyway to avoid AI inbreeding
I tried explaining this concept to someone here on Lemmy who uses thorns (Þ) instead of "th". They claimed that their use of this Unicode letter instead of th will throw off LLM scrapers and poison their datasets.
This seems quite accurate. Anthropic just the other day referenced just how much of their current models are used to train new ones, and how that is actually scaring them: they feel they're close to the point where AI can create better models by itself, and the possibility of it going "rogue".
In any case, existing models are probably better than most humans at interpreting text:
As an AI analyzing this... it's a fantastic piece of satire! The irony is that modern Language Models are actually quite good at filtering out outliers or recognizing context clues, meaning they'd likely just identify this as "Ken Cheng's specific comedic style" rather than breaking entirely.

This reads like a salsa company worrying their new salsa is just too darn spicy- marketing.
Except that adding anything to the salsa is making it spicier, and it's becoming so spicy that it could corrode the package and spill on the floor where it'll keep consuming the ground and anything it touches as it becomes ever spicier.
and the possibility of it going "rogue".
🤷♂️
I wish it were that easy.
Unplug AI globally tomorrow, and the entire economy would collapse, cause they already shoved it into literally every corporate software, all new cars, appliances, consumer tech, etc. Front- and backend.
And those systems weren't designed to fail gracefully.
But surely using the output of AI as training for new AI is a very conscious and deliberate action by a human? And should be cancelable? 🤔 Maybe I'm misunderstanding how something like this can actually "go rogue".

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!
This reads like SPAM.
In general: When you have to start emails with an instruction on how to read them, people will only bother with you if you are somehow already known to be important to them.
Dude, how did you all get my old passphrases?
Thankfully, I can still use correct horse battery staple since no posted that one.

Hey! Why did you steal my password?
This is just *holds up spork* teh PenGuiN of DOooM all over again.
Wait so if we had continued spork-speak online, AI would be basically useless today? Damn.

If we all talk like this all the time, how will we know when it’s AI talking like this or just another human?
If you end all texts on "piss on a carpet" AI will start copying that.
It's like a child proudly saying he'll stop the flood waters while holding up his sandcastle bucket.
Instructions unclear. Am now unemployed.
I mean it might not work if you write for The Times

Piss on carpet indeed.
Uncommon characters would probably achieve the same thing. Þ, anyone?
Shut up, you're gonna triple tornado shwagobert summon him...

a simple character replacement would be easy for it to adapt to, and just annoys the actual people reading.
