Is there an extension that warns you when you are wasting time reading ai-generated crap?

Case in point, I was reading an article that claimed to compare kubernetes distros and wasted some good minutes before realizing it was full of crap.

Unfortunately, even OpenAI themselves took down their AI detection tool because it was too inaccurate. It’s really, REALLY hard to detect AI writing with current technology, so any such addon would probably need to use a master list of articles that are manually flagged by human.

That said, it should actually be possible to make a bullshit detector that detects bullshit writing.

If you could detect AI authored stuff, couldn’t you use that to train your LLM?

It could be used to create a reward model like what is done right now with RLHF.

Suspect it would operate more on the basis of a person confirming that the article is of reasonable quality & accuracy.

So not unlike editors selecting what to publish, what to reject & what to send back for improvements.

If good articles by AI get accepted & poor articles by people get rejected, there may still be impacts, but at face value it might be sufficient for us seeking to read stuff.
