I haven't noticed this yet fortunately. Anyone?
It's a Vice article so it's all bullshit anyhow.
Not really. There's a lot of Eastern Europe where the kids speak English they learned from YouTube, so they all have American accents and call people "bro." Speach patterns like ChatGPT would be too cheery to be taken seriously by anyone.
Like, in this world right now, are there people that respond to a question with a chirpy, "Certainly! Let's dive in to that!"
Doubt.
Certainly! Let's dive into that:
As the ChatGPT platform has grown in userbase over the years, it can be assumed that younger foreign users would pick up on the language patterns — specially if they are communicating with the platform on a daily basis.
Much like the already-existing effect of children picking up on Youtuber's mannerisms and verbal styles over time, this brings up Nature vs Nurture1 methods of learning.
Would you like to explore more about how this comment was generated by a human with no LLM help, or tricks to make your own written text sound like you're fake?
If you truly didn't use LLM, kudos to you. You managed to switch my brain off in the first paragraph like only slop does. I had to force myself to read it
Thank you! Nothin AI about it, just good ol' thumb-smashing on a phone hahaha
No thanks, I just threw up in my mouth.
Oh no! 😨 I'm sorry to hear that!
Would you like to talk about your symptoms or hear about our lab-grown brain implants that mostly override physical symptoms by showing you ads relevant to what your neighbor browses past 8PM?
Alright, I’ll be here if you need any help!
I don't think ChatGPT would have output "specially", right?
I believe ChatGPT does. I'll have to go back and see, tho. If not, I gotta up my game.
That first bit always feels so false and icky. Like, no I didn't open up chatGPT to have my butt licked every other sentence. I just need the syntax for X or Y, and no I'm not delving into interesting depths of typescript. I'm monkeypatching the code to make a certain thing work and probably leaving a trail of wanton destruction behind every step I go.
I have a friend who has worked in HR that will sometimes slip into that tone, but that's unrelated to ChatGPT
Ironic use is allowed.
But, simultaneously, it is also very, very common for tiktokers and aislop youtubers to just churn out videos with AI voice narration.
Sometimes that's paired with an actually human written script, often, nope, ChatGPT or something similar.
There are a fairly small number of voices that are widely used... and I remember being a kid and just making MSFT Sam say shit and laughing at it, and then emulating it, though as an intentional joke robot voice.
I think its quite plausible that all the overworked, broke parents that just give their toddler a phone or a tablet... yeah, they're gonna be watching these short form videos and functionally learning pronounciation that way.
Just the occasional garbage comment or message where someone has clearly just copied and pasted a direct LLM output.
I do feel like lately I have people more bluntly asking me for stuff though and getting frustrated respectfully respecifying what they want but that also started before covid. People just want answers they think should be readily available for a while now.
