"old man yells at cloud"

Seriously though, it's not going away no matter how much anyone hates it. Emails and blogs will continue to be written with it, letters of recommendation will be/are written with it, Presidential speeches will be written with it, academic articles will be / are written with it (almost all ml and cs research is), news is written with it... It's not going to stop, but it will _probably_/_very likely_ get better.

There is no tool, no human, no method to determine if text is generated with one of these models at high F-score (only sometimes high precision, low recall domains for silly examples).

We're stuck with it. Like the English teacher and their despised spell check.



It occurs to me that over time, reading comprehension will become significantly more important than the ability to write. Anyone will be able to write something smart-sounding with AI's help, but it'll take real skill to make sure the output is correct and appropriate.
