I was curious why someone would need to classify a comment in the first place.

That's from the post referenced early on. I think that's the fundamental misunderstanding of what these tools are supposed to be used for. And I'm just as guilty myself at work. The problem isn't that the LLM generated that text, the problem is that a human didn't read it properly and ask what that meant and fix it before pushing.

The amount of garbage AI generates quickly overwhelms the human. The whole reason for computers to exist is to remove burden from humans. And yet here we are.
The more advanced the effort to detect human vs AI the more advanced the AI will be to write just like human.
I wonder if at some point it will become totally human like, and then what will be the reaction? will you accept it? will it be tuned and targetted just like ads to you so it can be eloquent and influence you?

This is ultimately a GAN and will converge below the error rate:

I ended up vibe-coding a comment linter for my projects that catches the garbage and forces the models to rewrite. Just look at this: https://xcancel.com/dmitriid/status/2097632371650552084#m
