You're very good.

No, I have not seen your post. I was coding away and genuinely was thinking about my eyesight and started adjusting my ambient lightning. Then I realized that I actually have no idea what I'm doing, so I have decided to write an Ask HN.

I wrote the title but was too lazy to find good wording of the subtitle (is one needed anyway?), so I had it generated with GPT3. I adjusted it by deleting one sentence.

What is interesting, is I've been feeding in prompts from /r/writingprompts on Reddit to see what gets generated. And the stories, while somewhat impressive, all have a certain feel to them kind of like they are formulatic. Or they have story flow errors or parts that can really fit any writing prompt.

Now, lately, when reading /r/writingprompts I every once in a while come across a response that reads very much like ChatGPT generated it. I guess the feel of the AI generated responses is somewhat like what you would get when a junior high schooler is asked to write a story and hasn't had much experience yet.
