Can you recognize an AI-generated response? How do you feel about them?

Without knowing it, I became a detective at spotting them on discussions, product launches, Twitter, Linkedin, and different platforms.

I think as long as I get the answer/data/info I'm looking for then I feel okay about it.

@elifares makes sense! But what about it is a question where you really need the POV or experience from someone? It's kind of sad to read an AI answer

I think I can recognize most of them

While AI generated content is on the rise, distinguishing AI- and human-authorship will become a new venture. OpenAI is already on track to develop such a classifier.

I definitely think I can recognize them now...but it's getting trickier and trickier!

@catherine_norris Every day more and more AI tools are coming out that make the answers better and better. For me, it is a personal challenge nowπŸ˜‚

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Long, elaborated, and somewhat too precise responses are easy to spot, but then there are some mechanisms where you can adjust the tone (sarcasm, emotional, etc.) and this makes answers sound more human and so much more difficult to spot. 🧟 but I love how PH and other tools have already implemented the Report as spam/AI-generated response :) :)

@irina_haupt I like the personal messages, and they are easy to spot. You're right with so many new options to personalize the response, it is becoming more and more difficult.

Not so much - I'm quite a gullible person πŸ™ˆ.

Yes, I can and make think about the laziness or lack of intellectual tools from the responsible of that responses. And, in certain way, I'm finding it a kind disrespectful, as they're thinking you are dumb... I'm a psychoanalyst (university grade with post-grades, just to establish a context) and TI consultant, and is easy to find the lack of affection, empathy and excess of perfection on that responses, besides a lot of owners, creators or CEOs of some enterprises have a spare time to write an email for me.... C'mon... be real, please!!
To a certain extent, yes. When a participant in a WhatsApp group posted a message for a career-based discussion, I found that it was taken from ChatGPT. It clearly had that "Overall" at the end of the paragraph and didn't feel personal. It was too generic. I instantly lost value for the response.

How do you tell?! Please share your wisdom with those of us who can’t πŸ˜‚

@may_at_normili I could say that to me, it's about how they are using the keywords. You see that the answers include too many words that were included in the original post.

I honestly don't know. These days, I assume that a perfectly crafted paragraph for a small social media post is ChatGPT

@mycelebs_elle Same here! And I think I also recognize some emojisπŸ‘€
Hello_Joy
@mycelebs_elle I'm not sure either :0

If someone uses AI to proofread and rephrase a comment, I may not be able to identify it.

@charlie_lee1 same here! If it is edited by a human and brings a more personal touch, then I think it's ok. Ultimately, we all need ways to improve and speed up our work.

It depends on how the AI was trained, but in many cases, I think I can still spot it. 70% chance? haha πŸ€“

If it has been worked on after its generated then it's hard to spot. But yeah otherwise you can spot it! I think it's acceptable where the tasks are repetitive or of not great importance. But otherwise it can be a bit tricky.
Maria Noemi Hernandez
@edworking I think it's nice to keep it fresh and personal for discussions, forums, or conversations on Social Media. I like to read what the other person is thinking and not AI. But I agree that there are some tasks that AI is making so much easier!
Ansar Uddin Khan
As far as I know , nowadays there are certain algorithms that are giving the human touch to the ai itself. So recognition of AI responses is quite difficult.
Maria Noemi Hernandez
@ansar_uddin_khan yes, as with everything in life... it depends. It depends if they're editing the answer after, how good the prompt is, how good the tool is, if they are posting what they get, etc
Anna
Sure, there's a certain structure that the response has. Plus there are lots of generalizations
Maria Noemi Hernandez
@anya1 I know, you can see the exact keywords. A trick I recently learned is to improve the prompts; that way, you will get a more natural and less AI answer.
May
@anya1 @mimih_arteaga that’s curious! Could you share an example of how a prompt can be improved to get more natural answers?
