It’s unacceptable for a tool to sacrifice an iota of clarity, coherence, meaning, quality, etc. for the purpose of embedding hidden clues within the text to suggest its provenance. The idea that anything other than *my* needs should factor into the generation of text *for me* is patently offensive.
Yes, thank you — you provided it. According to the paper cited, people with more familiarity with AI are much better at detecting its output than an average person. But I already knew that empirically.
Mostly a fine tuned GLM 5.2 purpose-built for writing. Not that I haven’t also used frontier models but they suck at uncensored roleplay with violence and conflict and evil bad guys and such. GLM still fails with errors of attribution and state.
shrug It’s pretty bad but it’s better than no roleplaying at all. Plus the interface lets me edit whatever I want so I can fix any outright errors.
That is interesting. The only time I really tried to use AI to write was a noir mystery. Dear god did it suck. It couldn’t follow instructions at all. Show don’t tell is probably more on display in noir than other genres and it couldn’t do it without constant correction. It kept falling back to its standard voice of third person omniscient instead of unreliable narrator.
There were parts that were written well, but a lot that was just grating and gratuitous. I had to edit like 85% of the output. I had to keep arguing with ChatGPT to write differently. And every once in a while it would swallow its own writing because it tripped its own content warnings. I suppose that’s neither here nor there on the writing quality, but we are far from having an AI write a novel without being full of tells.
AI isn’t there yet in terms of a quality or undetectability. And it doesn’t look to me like it’s going to get there any time soon.
