Researchers find six patterns that make AI text so exhausting to read

Researchers find six patterns that make AI text so exhausting to read

AI summary

A study from New York University and the University of Texas at Austin shows that frontier language models systematically overuse linguistic patterns that are hard for humans to parse. The researchers trace the problem to training on code and math, where correctness gets rewarded but clarity doesn't. Smaller models, by contrast, write more like humans.

Selection record

Not admittedSum of both 120 < twice the threshold 152

Source tier
Media and individuals; this tier's threshold is 76
Pre-filter
passed:研究AI文本可读性模式,涉及多模型评测

A model scores each item twice, independently, against one written standard, out of 100. An item is admitted only when the two scores add up to twice the threshold. The threshold is set per source tier.
