Only if they're sloppy.

The LLMs make mistakes too, though. They're trained on stuff they skimmed on the net, and they make a lot of "Americanism" mistakes: pluralizing mass nouns like cinnamon and email with an S; 'thru' and other lazy abbreviations; spelling words like 'labour' without one letter; pay 'check'(checked;still there). The list goes on.

Some of those won't be discernible by an American recipient, but the rest of the world sees it. It sticks out like a "see below list" and a "how it's like" and we see the rot.
