Ah, yes. We can’t stop because the ‘bad guys’ won’t. God forbid anyone win the technological arms race other than the land of the once free and the now cowed. If another country wins global dominance they might treat the US the way the US has treated the rest of the world, and that would be unthinkable.
Please don’t waste your time using AI powered ‘AI detectors’. There’s no such thing. Some relatively rare AI generated images and videos contain a synthid or other tag to show that they were AI generated, but those can always be removed and it’s not something you can do with plain text.
There is absolutely zero benefit to using something like this, but it can cause harm to real people as these often falsely report that an author or student’s actual own words are AI generated.
Exactly. In my view, this serves no other purpose than to avoid having to engage with an unpopular opinion. It’s a cheap way of dressing up a personal attack as a supposed argument.
Yea it’s a statistical guess. The statistics are weighted in a certain direction for me seeing how many times this person seems to be caught up in the same accusation and all of his profile link websites looking… the way it does. But of course it could just be that he happens to write a lot like how AI would generate text.
It’s a blind guess that’s weighted against people who are well read and don’t type like complete idiots. AI are trained on human language. They write like human writers. There’s no universal magic formula for “how AI would generate text.” AI detectors are nonsense. That is all they are. The only thing you’re doing by using them is feeding data in and accusing people of being witches if an AI tells you they are.
It’s funny that you still believe some tool could tell, with such short texts, whether they were written by an AI or a human. (And unfortunately, even with very long texts, this is no longer reliably possible, which is why some universities have recently stopped using such tests.)
It’s not about who deserves to win, it’s about incentives. If one side unilaterally slows development while others don’t, the likely outcome is a shift in technological leadership, not a slower pace overall. Whether that’s the US, China, or anyone else is a separate political question from whether voluntary restraint is an effective strategy.

I don’t think @eicker put all that much thought into that comment lol

Was that supposed to be a coherent sentence?

Aha! Now I’ve got you!
Yea I said it’s a statistical guess… it’s the very first sentence I wrote…
Hehe… 🤣
