alright, time to admit it... tried chatgpt for my english paper and it was lowkey terrible lol. has anyone figured out how to make these ai writers actually write something decent? or are they all just fancy bs generators?
tried all the popular ones - chatgpt, claude, bard. they're decent for brainstorming but writing full essays? nah. had one generate a paper about romeo and juliet that called them "two young professionals in the corporate world"
marking papers for 3 years now - we can spot AI writing instantly. it's always either too perfect or completely unhinged. saw one that used "furthermore" in every single sentence
tbh these ai writers are like that friend who talks a lot but says nothing. tried using one for literary analysis... apparently gatsby's green light was "an environmentally conscious traffic signal" lmaooo
ok but you gotta learn how to use them right. they're tools, not magic. i use them for outlining and generating ideas, then actually write myself. works way better
@blank_page_panic don't waste your money. my friend paid $50 for one of those "undetectable" ais and got busted immediately. prof said it read like "a drunk robot trying to sound smart"
biggest issue with ai essays - they can't do actual analysis. they just remix whatever data they're trained on. tried getting one to analyze a modern poem... pure gibberish
real talk - as someone studying AI, these essay writers are just sophisticated pattern matching. they don't understand context or nuance. that's why they make those weird mistakes
seeing lots of ai-written papers lately. dead giveaways: perfect grammar but zero original thoughts, weird transitional phrases, and random factual errors that no human would make
