Why AI detectors think the US Constitution was written by AI - Lemmy.world

Because AI detectors suck and are the modern day equivalent of dowsing rods?

They’re circular. If the text is too predictable it was written by an LLM* but LLMs are designed to regurgitate the next word most commonly used by human in any given context.

*AI is a complete misnomer for the hi-tech magic 8ball

The next most commonly used word would result in a loop of common word. LLM do not work like that
In context. And that is exactly how they work. It’s just a statistical prediction model with billions of parameters.
That’s not really how LLMs work. You’re basically describing Markov chains. The statement “It’s just a statistical prediction model with billions of parameters” also applies to the human brain. An LLM is much more of a black box than you’re implying.
