Indeed. My son has been accused by bullshit AI detection as having used AI, and it has devastated his work quality. After being "disciplined" for using AI (when he didn't), he now intentionally tries to "dumb down" his writing so that it doesn't sound so much like AI. The result is he writes much worse. What a shitty, shitty outcome. I've even found myself leaving typos and things in (even on sites like HN) because if you write too well, inevitably some comment replier will call you out as being an LLM even when you aren't. I'm as annoyed by the LLM posts as everybody else, but the answer surely is not to dumb us down into Idiocracy.

It's almost as if this whole LLM stuff wasn't a net benefit to the society after all.
