Human variation.
Ironically you would have to take the others person word on it, luckily you just said you were comfortable doing so.
Some people are statistically insignificant, and to them lots of stuff is incredibly obvious and they're constantly frustrated others can't see it. They might even sink sizeable free time into explaining random shit, just to practice not losing their temper when people can't see the obvious.
So you might not be able to tell that was AI from a glance, but humans are pattern recognition machines and we're not all equally good at it.
So believe a "llm accusation" or not, but some people absolutely can pick out a chatbot response, especially when taking the two seconds to glance at typical comments from a user profile.
Jump from 1-2 sentence comments to a stereotypical AI response...
Well, again, not everyone is as good at picking out patterns quickly.
To some what took me literally under 10 seconds and two clicks counts as "hardcore surveillance" because it would take them a long time to figure it out.
Don't assume everyone else is exactly like you.
