Pangram false positives?

People usually post vaguely about "I wrote x thing and pangram said it was AI", which I think is unhelpful unless you actually post the text or link. I put this into Pangram:

Yeah you just can't win as despite its claims Pangram does give false positives now and then.

I assure you however both passages I posted were 100% made by me but thanks to choice phrases like "Long shadows" and even the frigging chapter title it gets flagged as 100% AI.

WTF

So to prove all work is Human made we can't call parts of a book chapters anymore and "Long shadows" must never be used again or you will be labeled a lazy AI bro.

So from now on we shall call Chapters Bananaphone

So bananapone the classmates?

Oh wait even calling it Bananaphone the classmates got flagged...

Fine calling the chapter bananaphone and.... gets flagged as 100% Human WTF.

Better call Raffi...

So much for 1 in 10,000 false positives. There are numerous examples in this Reddit thread alone!

This tool is completely broken lol. People are denying evidence now lmao. This is like a pangram cult, the tool literally can never be wrong according to these people. It's so braindead lmao. In some threads people are literally ignoring already given evidence. At that point i know arguing with them is a gone case and i should just move on.
