That comment didn't read like AI generated content to me. It made useful points and explained them well. I would not expect even the best of the current batch of LLMs to produce an argument that coherent.

This sentence in particular seems outside of what an LLM that was fed the linked article might produce:

> What's wild is that nothing here is exotic: subdomain enumeration, unauthenticated API, over-privileged token, minified JS leaking internals.

“This comment is AI” is the new “First Post” from /. days. Please stop unless you have evidence or a good explanation.

Yeah, you have a point... the comment - and their other comments, on average - seem to fit quite a specific pattern. It's hard to really draw a line between policing style and actually recognising AI-written content, though.

What makes you think that? it would need some prompt engineering if so since ChatGPT won't write like that (bad capitalization, lazy quoting) unless you ask it to

Ya ur right, it's either LLM generated, LLM enhanced, or the author has been reading so much LLM output that its writing style has rubbed off.

You are right, it's 100% AI written

or, they wrote it and asked an LLM to improve the flow

We finally have a blog that no one (yet) has accused of being ai generated, so obviously we just have to start accusing comments of being ai. Can't read for more than 2 seconds on this site without someone yelling "ai!".

For what it's worth, even if the parent comment was directly submitted by chatgpt themselves, your comment brought significantly less value to the conversation.

What? It doesn't read that way to me. It reads like any other comment from the past ~15 years.

The point you raised is both a distraction... And does not engage with the ones it did.
