Ai detectors are bullshit.

That said, the second paragraph has the distinctive stocatto tone of AI

But AI is shaping how we write, so this could well all be hand written just by someone who spends time with AI output.



AI is also based on how we write. Some people are bound to write in a similar vein to LLMs naturally. See this person’s blog about it [0].

> stocatto

Staccato, which is Italian for "detached, separated".

When I see simple Italian words used as technical terms in music or art, I think "oh, this must be what English speakers feel when they work in tech - a lot of common words becoming specific concepts in that particular field".


Also, he is dangerously close to "stocazzo", which is similar to a very offensive way to say "fuck no!".


Thanks for the correction, I felt I hadn't got the word quite right.
