That certainly must happen, because the classifiers are imprecise.

So far, though, each time a case of possible misclassification has come up on HN and I've worked with the user to figure out what happened, it turns out that they used tools that they didn't think of as genai, but which left LLM imprints on their text.

This evidence is a bit weak, though, because the sample size is small.
