"One way you can tell is it's always such a nice report. Friendly phrased, perfect English, polite, with nice bullet-points … an ordinary human never does it like that in their first writing,"

Damn straight.

I shoot for this but am detectable by constantly making edits to make my point more understandable, adding something relevant that I thought of later (literally editing this post right now to include "adding something relevant that I thought of later") or to correct typos.

Stenberg, saying that he's "had it" and is "putting my foot down on this craziness," suggested that every suspected AI-generated HackerOne report will have its reporter asked to verify if they used AI to find the problem or generate the submission. If a report is deemed "AI slop," the reporter will be banned. "We still have not seen a single valid security report done with AI help," Stenberg wrote.

I appreciate this because I'd hate to get my issue removed as AI slop because I wasn't enough of an asshole and didn't make enough English mistakes. All for rejecting AI slop but it'd feel bad being the false positive deemed "not human enough" and getting my efforts tossed out too.

I may or may not be one of those autistic people who tried to compensate for my social deficiencies and inability to read the room by doing my best to be polite, nice, and inoffensive. (It helps that those qualities do not conflict with who I want to be at all.) And "nice and inoffensive" helps you easily subclass/multiclass into corpo dialect…

Oh yeah, I'm in the same boat. I'll go back to an issue I opened and keep adding context to make sure it's as fleshed out as possible, because English isn't my first language. Plus AuDD in my case.

For what it's worth, if you didn't tell me English wasn't your first language, I would not have known from this comment.
