    &gt; For those looking for a more discreet way to spend quality time, my sources tell me the single-occupancy office rooms on the top floor are sometimes left unlocked.<p>This was an interesting little rundown on all the different libraries at Harvard made all the more enjoyable by the author&#x27;s humor and wit.

    I disagree with the HKS Library review as it was right across from the HKS cafeteria (which had the best food on campus at the cheapest price) and a nice and airy foyer.<p>Also I found Lamont to be overrated - yeah it&#x27;s convenient and you can take some nice photos of yourself &quot;studying&quot; but I found it to be fairly depressing and aesthetically dated.

    The writing style seems a little unnatural, but the odd grammatical error convinced me that it wasn&#x27;t the result of someone asking an LLM to review the libraries and write the reviews in the voice of an intellectual who went to Harvard.<p>What a world we live in, that suspecting an LLM guided by a specific prompt would be my first instinct.

      The trope of HN comments determining whether an article was written by AI is becoming extremely tiresome.

      The author says he is a visiting researcher from ETH Switzerland. That is he is not a native English speaker.

      &gt; ...the odd grammatical error convinced me that it wasn&#x27;t the result of someone asking an LLM...<p>That&#x27;s easily solved by models intentionally introducing the odd grammatical error here and there, just enough to convince the sceptics, not so many as to give the impression of being unlettered. A bit like the mythical &#x27;RHS button&#x27; (which stands for &#x27;real human shitty&#x27; but in reality is called the &#x27;Shuffle&#x27; or &#x27;Swing&#x27; function) which is supposed to make mechanically-precise drum machines sound more like human drummers.

      &quot;We?&quot; I had no such trouble. You should spend less time with LLMs, if you can.
