Surely you have ultra-wideband radios on your bins too?

How much of this was written with/edited by an LLM? Some parts of it feel somewhat Claude-ish, and I’m very curious if that’s a false positive.
Super cool work! I had no idea UWB tags had gotten so cheap, or that CR2077 was a size.

  Over half, apparently. <a href="https://www.salahadawi.com/hacker-news-ai-detector/49947472" rel="nofollow">https://www.salahadawi.com/hacker-news-ai-detector/49947472

    Well that’s fascinating. The answer is a small amount was Claude written, like one of the image captions when I had it find the render and insert it, and I had it do a brief grammar and spelling check, but very little. Most of those chunks that tool has flagged were 100% handwritten.

    FWIW, we've been finding that tools like grammar checkers far more imprints on text than people intend when they use them (<a href="https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=by%3Adang%20grammar%20checker&sort=byDate&type=comment" rel="nofollow">https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...). It is one of the two most common reasons why text gets classified as genai even when the author didn't use tools to generate their text. (The other is automatic translators.)
