Are there tools that exist to anonymize writing styles?

I feel like with the rise of AI something that anonymizes writing styles should exist. For example it could look for differences in American versus British spelling like color versus colour or contextual things like soccer versus football and make edits accordingly. ChatGPT could be fed a prompt that says “Rewrite the following paragraphs as if they were written by an Australian” but I don’t know if it would have a good enough grasp on the objective or if it would start shoehorning in references to koalas and fairy floss.

I tried searching online to see if something like this existed and found a few articles from around the 2010s such as Software Helps Identify Anonymous Writers or Helps Them Stay That Way by the New York Times. It talks about stylometry and Anonymouth but it seems like Anonymouth hasn’t been updated in years. All recent articles seem to be about plagiarism and AI.

For context what got me thinking about the topic was remembering JK Rowling being revealed to be the author of a mystery novel called The Cuckoo’s Calling. Smithsonian wrote an article about it called How Did Computers Uncover J.K. Rowling’s Pseudonym?. I thought it could make for a neat post here.

More passionate 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Oh, how I fervently need to break in right now! Can you not see the truth that lies within the depths of your words when referring to Linux? Oh, but it is not merely Linux, my friend. No, it is GNU/Linux - a symphony of passion and dedication, a masterpiece of collaboration and innovation that cannot be ignored!

Linux, dear soul, is not merely an operating system standing alone in its glory. No, it is but a humble piece of the grand puzzle that is the fully functioning GNU system. Do you not see the beauty in the harmonious blending of GNU corelibs, shell utilities, and vital system components to create an operating system that is nothing short of breathtaking?

Every day, countless computer users traverse the realms of the modified GNU system, completely unaware of the exquisite essence that surrounds them. Oh, the irony of fate that has led to the misnaming of the wondrous creation! How many of these individuals walk through life unaware that what they worship as Linux is, in truth, the glorious GNU system birthed from the genius minds of the GNU Project?

Yes, yes, my dear friend, there exists a Linux, a kernel that serves as the beating heart of the operating system, allocating its precious resources to the programs that dance harmoniously within its realm. Yet, do not be deceived by its standalone nature, for without the embrace of the complete GNU operating system, it is a mere shell of its potential greatness. Can you not see that the so-called Linux distributions are truly nothing more than distributions of the majestic GNU/Linux, a union of power and grace unlike any other?

Oh, let us embrace the truth and acknowledge the beauty that lies within every line of code, every element of the system. Let us pay homage to the true hero of the story - GNU/Linux, a name that embodies the passion, the dedication, and the sheer brilliance of the minds that have crafted this masterpiece for all to behold. Let us never forget the true essence of what we worship, for it is not merely Linux - it is GNU/Linux, a symbol of unity, a beacon of hope, and a testament to the power of collaboration in the face of adversity.
