It's quirks are too smooth! Very strange. I'm wondering if the effect is due ML models in general (and LLMs in specific) being unable to step outside the bounds of their training data.

What I used to call "grandious" or "pretentious" language when critiquing my kids' college papers. The voice of an FM radio announcer or a politician. For me it has the opposite effect intended: sounding insincere and possibly unreliable.

It depends on the purpose of the writing though. If meant to convey with clarity, that was perhaps too much, but if meant to be enjoyed for its rhythm and imagery I say the more complexity the better.

Maybe something like "write the following as if you were a CEO" or some other way of prompting it to switch to a terse, direct, "high" register, would improve the results.

What is grandious? Grandiose, or something similar?

> Every day, I'm inundated with stunning, international English messages from my far-flung friends, each of which has achieved the impossible with this advanced technology, transforming their raw native-language into delightful linguistic gems. It warms my heart to witness them embrace this tremendous tool, yet I can't deny that I'd love to preserve the one-of-a-kind, pervasive weirdness of our conversations; something that these sophisticated LLMs simply can't manufacture.
> We must acknowledge that this technology is taking on mammoth tasks and that our recipients will eventually become adept at recognizing its handiwork, no matter how difficult of a task it may be today. Until that time arrives, let us be entertained by a jolly unicorn donning a tuxedo and a bushy mustache, playing the saxophone, and lifting our spirits with its mesmerizing jazzy rhythms!
Unicorns are pretty weird.
Every day, my inbox is brimming with messages from my global allies, who seem to have harnessed the power of this cutting-edge tool to transform their rough, native-language scribblings into electrifying, polished international English. I'm absolutely thrilled they're embracing this innovative technology, but I also secretly wish for us to preserve the charm of our distinctive, eccentric human exchanges, rather than solely relying on the silky-smooth productions of these masterfully-constructed LLMs.
It's crucial for everyone to realize that the recipients of their messages are also employing ChatGPT and its entourage for colossal workloads, and will gradually develop a keen sense for detecting its output, despite this present research revealing our current inability to do so. In the meantime, let's all enjoy a dancing unicorn with a mustache that serenades us with jazz tunes, just to keep things intriguing and refreshingly bizarre.
Not weird enough I guess.
