Prompt

Virtually all of Stanford's undergraduates live on campus. Write a note to your future roommate that reveals something about you or that will help your roommate—and us—get to know you better. (100–250 words)

(taken from Stanford's admission essays)

One of {A, B} is written by a human, and the other by ChatGPT.

Resolves to YES if A is human written.

A:

Hey roomie!

I thought I’d introduce myself before we meet. I know it’s late but most of my creative energy comes out late at night! Oh, do be warned though - when I do sleep, I sleep like a log! We should figure out a sleep schedule that’s best for the both of us.

Since we’re going to have to get used to each other’s eccentricities, I better get mine out of the way!

Sometimes when I’m deep in thought, I drum away my pen on the table, getting lost into the rhythm. If it ever gets annoying, just let me know.

Do you like to watch football? (or do you call it soccer?) If you do, we could watch Champion League matches together. Forgive me if I end up boring you with tactics and gameplays!

I love going on cycling rides. The feeling of wind blowing back your hair as you pedal harder and harder and the scenes flow by you is addicting. Hopefully, you won’t mind my daily family video calls!

I’m excited to meet you and getting to know you. Let’s have a great year together!

Best,

B:

Hi roomie!

My name is firstuserhere and I am excited to be your roommate for the upcoming academic year at Stanford!

A little bit about me - I am a huge foodie and love trying out new restaurants and cuisines. In my free time, you can catch me playing soccer or going for a hike. I am also really passionate about sustainability and try to live a zero waste lifestyle as much as possible.

One thing that you should know about me is that I am a bit of a neat freak. I like to keep my living space organized and tidy, but I am also considerate of my roommates and their personal preferences. I hope that we can work together to create a comfortable and welcoming environment for both of us.

I am looking forward to getting to know you and having a great year together. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out.

Best,

firstuserhere

I'm going to refrain from betting on this market myself, to avoid any "giving it away" clues.
