They analyze statistical patterns, they don't cross reference the training data.

It's picking up the text as generated because it's mostly guess work and constantly spits out false positives, especially with non native speakers.

    Honestly I didn’t expect them to flag non-native speakers. LLMs don’t often make gramatical mistakes (or at least not ones your average joe could identify)

    Foreign speakers often know English better than most Americans

    Oooh yeah, the most common dumb mistakes are (by my own checking) done by Americans in the VAST majority cases. Stuff like not knowing how to use your/you're, there/their/they're, cloths/clothes, definitely/defiantly, where/were/we're, its/it's etc. correctly and the many other failings of basic grammar like "would/could of" and so much else.
    I don't think there's another country in the world where the native speakers are so fucking bad at even the most basic shit.
    The most common response I've gotten and seen when others correct stuff like that is "calm down, English probability isn't their main language" yet when checking it's been Americans who made the mistakes 99% of the time.

    The decline I've seen in my time on the internet is genuinely shocking

    Weirdly enough i saw a massive increase in little typoes on reddit this year. More typoes and such in a few months than i saw in years.

    It feels like LLMs started making mistakes on purpose.
