As a Creative Writing major, I took a bunch of grammar classes, so I always see where AI makes technical writing mistakes.
For example, there are subtleties around comma usage in English, e.g., introductory or parenthetical phrases, coordinate adjectives, nonrestrictive clauses, etc.
But one fundamental rule is using a comma (with a conjunction like "and") to separate independent clauses, i.e., two separate sentences.
I've noticed that ChatGPT often stylistically eschews the subject in the second independent clause of these types of constructions, like:
"The company already holds over 100,000 BTC on its balance sheet, and sees mining as the natural next step in protecting its Bitcoin treasury and securing the network it depends on."
The technical error here is "and sees." In this construction, the second sentence should lead with the subject "it," like so:
"The company already holds over 100,000 BTC on its balance sheet, and it sees mining as the natural next step in protecting its Bitcoin treasury and securing the network it depends on."
Just saying, edit your AI editor, and note that this matters at all to most; it just always clicks the comma area in my brain.
to be fair though when you ask ChatGPT about this it explicitly says it's dropping the second sentence's "it" for informal stylistic purposes, which i think is fine/natural
just something i've noticed
these kinds of stylisms are just as prevalent as the lazy em dashes that people latch onto with AI writing, but you just gotta know what to look for
to me, comma handling is just as big an indicator etc.
