LLM output fatigue?

I didn't hate the writing even if it's AI, but I deeply disliked the animations. I don't know if that's LLM fatigue or not.

Apple sideways traffic light fatigue.

Good to know I'm not the only one annoyed by that superfluous piece of ${whatever} signalling.

What is dead can never die. All blueteamers are ironborn these days.

Maybe that's on you though. I enjoyed it, though the discrepancy between the `*sshole` name and the `sshhole.com` domain made me twitch. How is anyone[0] obsessive enough to find this and write it up and yet not obsessive enough to make the amount of `h` consistent?

[0]: Be they human or LLM. Or an entity with any proportion of the two. I do not judge nor discriminate.

Look closely. The second h is behind the word and almost as dark as the background

Oh. Thank you!

Yes, but if you select the text and copy paste it it comes out with a single h, and also the <title> of the page has it with a single h and a double h.

  <title>*sshole · sshhole.com</title>

Strange and confusing

I thought it was a great write up. It did feel a bit AI-coded, but whether it actually was or not, it's still a good bit of work imo.

I dunno, there were some strange discrepancies in the explanation (and captions). Didn't really hang together.

It would be weird to spend this much effort doing the site by hand, for a bug that the author says was found by a swarm of agents.

Looks good overall, but I was wondering if eg. "the timer learns nothing" and "no X, no Y, no Z" was slop rather than a deliberate choice.

Slop, no question. There's at least 10 Claudisms on the page, and I'm not that good at smelling them. Some of the sentences might have been human-written.

fwiw pangram believes the text is AI as well

I do actually. My guess is that this was not just one-prompted, but someone took the time to refine it based on their tastes and expectations until it matched something they would actually like.

However, if someone already developed a strong AI-slop-tingle it will still be triggered by some telltale signs and let their subconsciousness know that they can't possible enjoy this.

It has a crap load of text but says very little and is very bad at conveying the details because it thinks it has to tell some weird story.

I had this classmate that had their ChatGPT instructions to respond in this same laidback, lowercase, gen-z style. i recognized the output as a lot of llm writing almost immediately

Yes. Reading this feels like a LLM pretending to write carelessly. And failing miserably

It has very low information density. This would read 10x if it were just a few paragraphs of text. Instead we need to render an animation every few sentences. Not a fan.

I think at some point I'm going to get banned from HN for repeatedly saying this, but here we go:

This thread highlights why I often say that at some point in the future, the obsession with whether something was written by AI or not will be classified as a mental disorder.

It is tiring to virtually every day see this discussion play out in some HN thread or other. It's also just noise. I don't think your comment, nor the thread it inspired, added anything of value to the discussion.

I left after trying to scroll to a concise description of the issue. I don't want a theatrical presentation.
