Like Scott, I won’t advice any human to end up sounding like Hegel.
Unless this is regional variation in English, it’s advise or advize. (The second one may trigger ‘autocorrects’.)
Two of the following paragraphs are GPT-3 output. The other one is the actual following paragraph from the Philosophy of Right. Now you can play this little game:
Easy mode: Carefully re-read the initial paragraph, check it against each one of the following, and guess which one is from actual Hegel.
It’d be an amusing trick if GPT coughs up (actual) Hegel when prompted with Hegel.
Update after 3 days: This exercise turned out to be simpler than I expected. On one hand, this community seems to include a disproportionately large number of people who’ve actually read some Hegel. On the other hand, it was possible to spot the correct paragraph without even taking into account the meaning of the text. Nice catch, Richard_Kennaway!
Until now, we have four comments explaining their methodology, and I am happy to see that the correct paragraph was found through many different considerations I hadn’t thought of. I am now wondering if the absence of wrong guess is due to real ease of this exercise for the average LW user, or at least partially to selection bias (eg people who guessed wrong didn’t leave a comment).
I got it wrong.
I don’t remember what my wrong guess was though, or why. Just that it looked like Hegel (based on what I read of the paragraph, which wasn’t a lot) - i.e. nonsense. (Which could be because it’s translated.)

Uh, no regional variation, it was just my first typo on LW.
Fixed. I’ve also included a small update with some final thoughts.
