original prose

Note: This tag is automatically applied by the EQ Benchmark slop scoring system and is not a quality rating or AI detection score.

Definition

Original prose refers to writing that has been identified through the EQ Benchmark "slop score" system as containing stylistic patterns more commonly associated with human creative writing. The system analyzes text for common AI writing tendencies such as repetitive sentence structures, overused phrases like "it's not X, it's Y" constructions, excessive em-dash usage, and other telltale markers that frequently appear in AI-generated content.

This tag serves as a sorting mechanism rather than a seal of approval. Posts tagged with original prose have scored below certain thresholds on the slop metric, indicating the writing exhibits fewer of the repetitive patterns that AI models tend to default to when generating text.

Usage

This is an auto-applied tag and should not be manually added to posts. The system evaluates the character description, first message, and other text content during upload processing.

Important distinctions:

• Does not guarantee human authorship
• Does not indicate writing quality
• Does not function as an AI detector

This serves to help users filter content based on their preferences. Some users may specifically seek out original prose tagged bots for a particular writing feel, while others may not find the distinction relevant to their needs.

The tags applied by the EQ Benchmark are as follows:
original_prose
mixed_prose
common_prose
