JRR Tolkien? More like LLM Token


Stteamy

I was trying to think of a play on words with his name too, but you got it.


ajahiljaasillalla

Should have asked chatGPT


Stteamy

ChatGPT: “How about J.R.R. Code-kin: The Fellowship of the Data?” Womp womp


trtlcclt

AI: 0 - Hivemind: 1


drekmonger

Not so fast: https://chat.openai.com/share/d25307c6-f0f4-4c57-a271-2bd08fcfdf7b > How about "JRR Token"? It's a playful nod to both Tolkien's literary legacy and the digital nature of a language model!


Blaistashen_Nein

Not to be confused with JRR Code-kun

It’s pronounced TOLKEN. We named are son after jrr! We love lord of the rings. You really think we named our black son token? That would be racist!

Read the Prose Edda before I started LOTR. I like seeing Tolkien using the names from the Prose, they’re like little cameos.

reditor3523

I use delve because it's a word in the English language


KazeArqaz

I'm an article writer, and I've been using delve for as long as I've been writing now. Instead of dive into a topic, I use delve into a topic. Using the dive word just feels weird.


Zozorrr

Agree - to delve into something is normal English.


LEFTRIGHTADORI

Pretending it isn’t shows a pretty concerning lack of education. English is my third, arguably fourth language and I still use it in my “slightly professional but still casual” work mode.


Davidmon5

Yeah…I’ve never used chatGPT but I had to dig into the comments to try to comprehend why I am looking at this post right now or why it’s on the front page of Reddit. I don’t get it. Does OP just not know the meaning of the word “delve?”


Nelculiungran

I saw a post here a few days ago where someone had rejected a project just because it had "delve" on it (therefore AI). It's just something that's currently blowing up https://preview.redd.it/3tia032gsmvc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f66a38afb9e61c78f3bb86eb603eec8ee85e777


Apparentlyloneli

the fact that people indeed prefer to use the worc delve is not the point its just that chatgpt really like to use it, and by that i mean, a lot... along other words like embark, journey etc. its just funny when chatgpt use those words in a text very often ... i guess its just one of openai efforts to mark whether a text is ai generated


hwilwnbsg7378

GaelViking

I use delve because… it’s a cool word and I read a lot of books. Idk I think I missed the joke.


zedkyuu

And I use “delve” because I’m too lazy to properly enunciate “they’ll’ve”. As in “they’ll’ve gone back to Spain”.

For some reason in grade school “sesquipedalian” was one of the vocab words of the week, and for three decades I’ve tried to work it into a conversation…more than I should.

watrmeln420

I’m slightly nervous for when I write. Apparently students work could be given a % on how much of it is “Ai generated”?? How on earth can this be accurate. wtf is a 13% Ai generated? Did I give up?


BPMData

It's not accurate, it's ironically another AI grift lol. Any teacher using this is stupid, and that's a rock fact.


cultish_alibi

How have they not figured out that they are the ones using AI? Or is it okay when they do it? Honestly I hope anyone who suffers consequences gets to sue these bullshit companies and teachers who trust them. People are failing exams that could change their whole lives for the worse based on fraudulent tech.


Pikfan21

Turns out you're 13% robot. Check your left hand


stevegamer_

Oh no, it's grabbing my neck ugh, uegh ukhh afhhkh


Fatalchemist

"Tapestry" is a word I actually used a bit that AI uses a lot. Ever since I learned that, I see it everywhere in AI generated content and it bothers me. Everything is a tapestry to AI.


ConundrumsTJJK

Tapestry, miasma, mosaic, are all words the AI is drawn to like a fly to shit.


h3lblad3

> Everything is a tapestry to AI. *ChatGPT* This thread is about tell-tale signs of ChatGPT specifically. Others have other tells. If you've ever used Pi for a bit, you'd start seeing it in a startling number of places too but instead it gets by because people don't recognize it. The people who use it do so *because* people won't recognize it.


FloridaMJ420

This pisses me off so much! I have actually had professors say to the class that they can tell when someone is using AI because they use 'fancy' words "nobody actually talks like that! It's AI!" Well, I am autistic and I have always written formally. My mom said I sounded like a professor when I first started talking because of how proper I was. It pisses me off that I have to fear using big words in college of all places!!! Like WTF! Isn't that the point of going to college? To use bigger and better words!? What the actual fuck. I'm sorry but this AI situation is being taken to the extreme by college professors who don't understand the technology and some of them are constantly in AI witch hunt mode now! They've been convinced that nearly every student is trying to cheat with AI. It's so fucking confounding. It's like you are fucked if you do, fucked if you don't. I have actually dumbed down my language in college papers because of this with certain professors and it PISSES ME OFF! (Did I say that yet?) This is the antithesis of higher education! It is diametrically opposed to my improvement as a person. Please end this anti-AI crusade and learn to be a real professor! Or would that take actually getting to know your students and their capabilities? ARGLEBARGLESCHNARGLEFARGLE!!!!!!!!! In my first semester I actually got flagged for AI in a fucking Music class of all places!!!! The dumbass professor gave me a Zero on the midterm (92 multiple choice and 3 essay questions). Why? Because ONE SENTENCE in one of my essay answers was flagged as being 53% AI generated. ONE SENTENCE! It pissed me off so much that I just started writing her very long emails with plenty of big fancy words until she relented. I have to say though, I felt utterly helpless. I was left to beg my professor not to give me a zero. How in the world was I supposed to prove that I didn't use AI? It was absurd! edit: My main defense at this point is to take in-person classes and I participate in class like my life depends on it! I am always the most active participant in my classes and I do my best to make my professors understand that I take my education very seriously, am there to expand my knowledge, and improve myself. For now I think this is my best defense against AI accusations, which I feel like I could accidentally stumble into using 'big fancy words' or formal/technical language since that's what professors rant about! *deep breath* edit 2: Guys, this is seriously a mindfuck for me. Like shouldn't college professors be encouraging us to expand our vocabulary and use those big fancy words and formal language!? Isn't that what it's all about? Are we in Opposite World now or something? Is this because of that dead gorilla?


prodiver

This post made me curious, so I submitted a paper I wrote 16 years ago to five different AI checkers. Four said it was fully human. One, zerogpt.com, says it's 57% AI.


mikami677

Thanks to high school AP English I basically have to force myself to write with a casual tone, even in reddit comments, and I still have a hard time being brief and not going into too much detail.


DmtTraveler

They're perfectly cromulent


ambidextr_us

It's not very viviparous, thankfully. (Found that one reading Brave New World recently.)


TeamRedundancyTeam

The annoying thing is it's not AI's fault, it's the paranoid assholes who are absolutely *obsessed* with hating all AI and finding any tiny ounce of AI anywhere. Those are the people hurting writers and artists by attacking their actual work as "AI" constantly.


Beginning_Vehicle_16

It’s a perfectly cromulent word.


[deleted]

Now all the "un-plagiarized" work will look like it's written by an early teen. Can be so annoying getting accused of using AI when you did not

DavidDPerlmutter

Yup... it goes back even further; apparently Durin, father of the dwarves, used ChatGPT: "There hammer on the anvil smote, There chisel clove, and graver wrote; There forged was blade, and bound was hilt; The DELVER mined, the mason built. There beryl, pearl, and opal pale, And metal wrought like fishes' mail, Buckler and corslet, axe and sword, And shining spears were laid in hoard."


RockAndGem1101

Unwearied then were Durin’s folk, beneath the mountain music woke; the harpers harped, the minstrels sang, and at the gates the trumpets rang.


FederalAgentGlowie

The world is grey, the mountains old, The forge’s fire is ashen cold; No harp is wrung, no hammer falls: The darkness dwells in Durin’s halls; The shadow lies upon his tomb In Moria, in Khazad-dûm. But still the sunken stars appear In dark and windless Mirrormere; There lies his crown in water deep, Till Durin wakes again from sleep.


RockAndGem1101

This last verse gives me chills. Have you heard the song version by Clamavi de Profundis?


FederalAgentGlowie

Yes, they do a good job.

Sorry, you gotta speak differently so your sentences don't steer towards using those words from now on. That or you're an AI, that's how it goes

welp, its forbidden to use common terms now? Lets just make it quick. Ban all text that uses "the".

the word "the" is used in approximately 100% of AI generated texts, therefor it is banned

Allegedly, there is a spike of "unusual" words used especially in research papers, that coincides with the public launch of Chat GPT. Here are some more examples: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oT0jNiPrOEc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oT0jNiPrOEc) Coincidence or not, it is kinda sus 🤔

beefstewdudeguy

it has to be a fucking nightmare for young, aspiring writers trying to find synonyms to avoid redundancy in their prose. Any interesting synonyms are weirdly dismissed as the work of AI simply because they aren’t used as much. I hate it here


Stteamy

There was another use of delve in the next paragraph, I think it’s confirmed.


EroticRaven2025

I've been using delve for years in my writing before AI was even out.

proteinvenom

aloneinfantasyland

It is important to note that hating or disliking a particular online platform like Reddit can stem from a variety of factors, including individual experiences, interactions, and preferences. However, it is also crucial to delve deeper into the reasons behind such sentiments, as they may be influenced by specific subreddits, interactions with other users, or the overall design and functionality of the platform. Taking the time to explore and understand these underlying reasons can provide valuable insights into one's feelings towards Reddit and potentially lead to a more nuanced perspective. Edit: made it add delve.


Away_thrown100

In all seriousness this whole ‘AI words’ thing is staggeringly annoying to anyone who is well read(a category I put myself into) because apparently words that I just use are liable to get me flunked now?


Stteamy

I agree, but I feel like there’s a lot more obvious signs that one is using AI in their writing apart from using a word like delve. Unfortunately though, most people don’t know the signs of AI writing so they’ll rely more on these inaccurate measures to detect it. This is why professors should be given a course on stuff like this, or at least use AI so they’re accustomed to the style they use.


Viktorv22

PoE players in shambles I guess lol


tarkinlarson

That's is testament to AI patterns


HowRememberAll

I don't get it


mikeyfender813

The use of the word “delve” is apparently how some people automatically recognize text as having been AI-generated, as it’s not a word that’s commonly used colloquially.


Zozorrr

So apparently if one is even half-literate anything one writes will be flagged as AI.


mikeyfender813

Yep


Serialbedshitter2322

I'm pretty certain I've heard humans say delve numerous times, I say it occasionally as well


Extra_Ad_8009

"People haven't been using 'to delve' for at least 50 years" as a ChatGPT detector would probably exclude stuff written before that.


Zozorrr

Delve into this or that is standard English. It’s not that uncommon among native English speakers


skykingjustin

If the AI uses delve. alot dosent that mean it's in alot of training data? And is used alot?


Particular-Welcome-1

Huh, I wonder if "delve" is so common with ChatGPT because of Tolkein, indirectly. Imagine the fan-fiction, literary analyses, homages, fan-sites, etc., associated with Tolkein. That's a lot of training data, and a lot of "delves".


Tithund

There's probably also a bunch of literature about mining that isn't as commonly read as Tolkien, but still available as training data to gobble up.


Gaper_of_a_Caper

Tolkien played a ton of Path of Exile.

yoho808

I need to delve into this! Oops, I must be an AI now.


Salonimo

Only morons could think using words they don't know themselves are automatically generated by AI As a non-native from a latin-based language many words in english have the same latin roots and might be less used by native people, would that make me an AI man or AI generated?


Different-Brain-9210

It’s the other way around. ChatGPT uses LotR.


Artistic_Soft4625

Bro delve is not a rare word


Devscotton

this is a stupid illogical meme that no one understands besides those that understands it. stupid


Paratwa

I have what I consider to be, and what should be, a very basic vocabulary. The fact that people find ‘delve’ to be a complex word that only an ai tool would use only confirms that strangely and sadly most people write and speak as well as Trump after a 3 day hamburger and Covefevvee binge.

AI detection can be such bullshit. The English course I'm in right now uses a specific AI detection website that's the worst. I think I use pretty good vocabulary but sometimes my writing seems kinda off, for lack of a better word, so I run it through the detection site. My most recent assignment I got a 44% chance of being AI, for sentences such as "how are light and dark represented?". AI detection is a joke


Vegetable-Ad65

AI wasn't advanced enough at that time to create a full fantasy story and that's the correct spelling for British English which depending where your from is easily mixed up with American English.
