Repeatedly saying the same thing with slightly different phrasing: "Flipper One isn't an upgrade to Flipper Zero", "Flipper Zero and Flipper One are completely different projects", "Flipper One doesn't replace Flipper Zero"

Notably different style from the author's pre-LLM writing, see https://blog.flipper.net/introducing-video-game-module-power... or https://blog.flipper.net/electronics-testing/ for example.

Sufficiently advanced marketing is indistinguishable from AI.

In my experience, the bulleted list with emojis is usually a pretty strong tell (the one in the article just after "We call these parts sub-projects"). LLMs (maybe just ChatGPT) love doing that.

Yeah the emoji lists seem to be a ChatGPT specialty for some reason. Their model LOVES emoji's in their writing. Which must be something they use a system prompt to instruct. Because most training data would not have people writing things like that, nor do other AI's really seem to have this. When you see the long dashes and emoji lists you can tell right away ChatGPT wrote it. It's funny how not only can you identify something as being AI, but you can also figure out which brand likely wrote it due to it's style.

Phrasing like “Honestly?” and “It’s not just [x], it’s [y]” multiple times

Every list is a set of 3, and most lists have a bolded intro phrase, one even has the famous slopperific emojis

reply
"Honestly?" and "not just x, but y" appear once, and only half of the lists have exactly three items, making part of your comment factually incorrect; did you just not look closely or did you jump to conclusions because you have an agenda / axe to grind?

A clear sign for me is always the use of long em dashes ⸺

I've been using em dashes for forever, they are the best punctuation. Sad world where using them means you're an AI

what the ... that is one char

Let me introduce you to three-em dashes: ⸻

It's not just long⸻it's extremely long!

It was bad enough when the AIs were only competing on thinking, now I gotta worry about length?

And your ellipsis could also be one! …

I use the real ellipsis fairly frequently when I'm on Linux where I have access to compose key sequence, since it's just compose key + `..`.

The fact that using correct typography makes people label you as an AI is just sad and it's just an overused accusation at this point.
