I support this. There is a mass psychological effect emerging out of this AI-content-witch-hunt where people are manufacturing "flaws" to beat the AI-slop allegations.

To list out a few personal examples:

1. Several students I knew at GaTech in 2024 taking the algorithm class (which is notoriously hard) started submitting assignments with sub-optimal/brute-force algorithms cuz the TAs kept reporting them for academic misconduct on optimal solutions.

2. I've started avoiding "em-dashes" in all my writing

3. Junior engineers leaving "typos" in their code reviews or submitting code-reviews with absolutely 0 comments (LLMs love to leave verbose comments)

Gotta stop shaming people for using AI fr
