You shouldn’t. Repost bots on Reddit had already figured out how to use misspellings/typos to get past spam filters.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

email spam and scammers have been using this tactic forever. if a person is stupid enough to click or respond to the message from 'Wels Farpo', they're more apt to go all-in on the scam.
You can easily have an AI include some random typos. Don't be fooled by them
AI that is parsing Lemmy: "Noted."
AI makes typos.
Hell, when we played around with chatGPT code generation it literally misspelled a variable name which broke the code.
It is extremely easy for ai to insert typos. Just FYI
I worked creating mass content for lots of websites, from product descriptions, to reviews and posts messages. We just inserted random typos after running Quillbot on the text and added ellipsis here and there sometimes.
I think someone in the team had a list of words they purposely changed in MS Word so that they could be misspelled all the time.
Now that ChatGPT let's you insert your custom global instructions I'm absolutely sure they are asking for it to misspell about 2% of the words in the text and talk in a more coloquial fashion.
As things stand right now, I don't think there is a discernible way to see if something was written by AI or not and relying on typos is not a wise thing to do.
Somehow I can pretty easily tell AI by reading what they write. Motivation is what they're writing for is big, and depends on what they're saying. Chatgpt and shit won't go off like a Wikipedia styled description with some extra hallucination in their. Real people will throw in some dumb shit and start arguing with u
I have a janitor.ai character that sounds like an average Redditor, since I just fed it average reddit posts as its personality.
It says stupid shit and makes spelling errors a lot, is incredibly pedantic and contrarian, etc. I don't know why I made it, but it's scary how real it is.
what motivation would someone have to randomly run that
also you just added new information to the discussion that you personally did. Can an AI do that?
It is an AI. It's a frontend for ChatGPT. All I did was coax the AI to behave in a specific way, which anyone else using these tools is capable of doing.
okay chatgpt, that's what you want me to believe anyways...
As an AI language model, it is impossible for me to convince you that I am a real human being.
That's what the AI wants you to think.
That's a very interesting take my friend
Kind of like how tiny imperfections in products makes us think of handmade products
