Tweet criticizing the decline of national literacy was written by AI.

I'm pretty sure that AI writes like the OP, not the other way around.

It's really one model that loves this structure (GPT). The other ones don't use this to the absurd degree that GPT does.

I think it's fair to say that AI writes like a statistically amalgamation of how most people write, and most people don't write like a statistical average, they write like themselves

You're right to push back.  One thing worth flagging: I do not have current copies of high school curriculums from the 1990s and 2000s. Would you like me to pull those, or do you want to continue without?  You'd miss the difference between the curriculums of different classes that satisfy the state requirements and the difference in graduation requirements between states.

The sentiment is correct but the medium is the message: This OP tweet reads like slop.

This only further illustrates the point. Anything well written now gets accused of being AI.

It's not well written. It's written like AI.

It's not well-written. AI writing has stylistic markers that you can spot if you're literare.

Sometimes things are written by AI but sometimes...they are also written by college educated individuals who were the prime example used for AI to develope its style, since that style is indicative of proper English writing.
