AI isn't being trained on us, as we are now -- at least not yet

Hi, I'm 33F, raised by the internet of yesteryear.

​

Yes, ***that*** internet: Two girls, two hammers, men intentionally filleting themselves in contest, the beginnings of 4chan, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit ... The height of the grammar notsees, vine, CheesePizza being posted on every image-sharing site you could find by bots and pedos.

​

​

I use elipses (...) "properly", I type small numbers out with letters and big numbers out with numerals.

I write in full sentences 90% of the time, often incredibly long ones that feel like run-ons.

I use paragraphs and formatting as a default, even in casual conversation.

​

​

And I often get mistaken for AI, these days. Just in the last two years I've been called AI more times than I can count. Sure, there are the trolls who run around calling everything AI, but that can't account for all of it.

​

​

If AI was really scouring every bit of the internet and taking every spec of data, I would assume that it wouldn't keep following the etiquette of the past - it should be following GenZ etiquette, at the very latest. It should be adopting slang and specific grammatical changes that are plainly obvious between those who were raised my generation's internet and those raised on the current generation's.

​

It's not even halfway, you could assume that it would balance itself out and be able to emulate both eras, and feel similar to everyone a little - but it doesn't.

​

​

When you use AI, it feels like a 45-50yo dude. The prime example of the main user base of early 2000's internet. Even when using image generation, even with all the genz and millennial using that right now, it still feels dated.

​

And maybe it's because this generation is doing such a great job of combating AI-based theft with invisible pixel codes and such, but I just don't see *today* in the way AI represents character. I see 20 years ago.
