alt Hacker NewsDon't forget about Contrastive Negation:
> Contrastive negation is a rhetorical structure that denies a specific idea in the first half of a sentence and asserts an alternative in the second half.
> It typically follows an "It’s not X, it’s Y" or "not just X, but Y" formula.
Wikipedia also has a great resource which covers many of the common LLM patterns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing

How long until LLMs are taught to avoid the patterns in that wiki page?
As someone who’s writing gets flagged as AI a lot, I appreciate the opening disclaimer section.
And I especially appreciate the idea that these patterns aren’t the problem. Don’t just fix the patterns. The problem is they point to hastily or carelessly written content.
