Too good to be true
Most instruments claiming to detect AI-generated textual content fail spectacularly, my colleague Kyle Wiggers reported. That’s a paradox. I’m solely human, however a variety of the AI-written pitches I obtain don’t go the sniff take a look at but; their fashion and wordiness really feel off.
Then once more, it’s most likely too early to count on machines to detect a je ne sais quoi, even when we are able to see it. As fellow TechCrunch author Ron Miller noticed not too long ago, “it’s actually like AI-generated artwork, which has a sure feel and look.”
That feel and look was made funnily apparent in a current experiment performed on one in all my favourite social media accounts, Ugly Belgian Homes.
