Is this comment AI-generated? All recent comments from this account are two paragraphs-long, and are a vague retelling or the article.

The horse is out of the barn. It's easy to remove AI tells in short text, and impossible to moderate. Half the stuff you read online is AI (it's always more than you think) and the fix is to log off and buy books.

I hate constantly discussing this but this one is quite interesting.

"It's a great example of..." definitely set off my slop alarm.

On the other hand it isn't actually "a vague retelling of the article" it's picking out a particular element that the commenter wanted to highlight.

Who cares? What matters is whether it is good. I’d rather read a good comment that’s computer generated than a bad one written by a human.

I care. Online forums are for humans to share ideas around. Not for bots to farm karma.

My take: "Is this AI-generated?" is often the inadvertent compliment paid to those who can write decent English by those who can't.

It is, and they've just posted another one.
