A user on dev.to describes an experience where their comment, which contained factual data, was dismissed because it was perceived as AI-generated. The author argues that this dismissal is a common tactic to avoid engaging with the substance of an argument, as verifying claims is more difficult than questioning the origin of the text. They suggest that while AI can commoditize prose and make writing cheap, the true value lies in the underlying data or evidence, which AI cannot independently produce. The author notes that the AI's writing style, particularly in a non-English language like Polish, can sometimes reveal its non-human origin, but this is a signal of the model's training data limitations, not a refutation of the content's accuracy.
