Accused of AI-written tweets, he asks why slop makes us distrust everything

random_walker · x · 2026-08-19

randomwalker says people keep claiming his tweets are AI-generated and that he tries to bypass AI detectors. He finds it hilarious and won't change his style, which had "AI characteristics" long before AI writing existed.

His view: what makes AI writing nauseating isn't the style itself but the disconnect between punchy phrasing and shallow substance. He's confident enough in his substance to take "AI-like style" as a compliment. He laments that the prevalence of slop makes us second-guess everything, and suggests re-reading instead: good writing reveals depth on a second pass, hollow writing falls apart.
