Is it worth the effort to write a "X should switch to Rust" post that ends with "but I personally don't have the appetite to do it"?
he made it to the front page of HN, so I guess the answer is "Yes"

- Recursing 6y agoA GPT-3 written nonsensical article made it to the front page of HN[0], so I don't think it's a good measure of value [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23893817 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23893817
- tgflynn 6y agoHow would I go about confirming that your statement is accurate ? I see several comments on the article saying it looks like it might have been written by GPT-3, but there's no confirmation. There's also a comment on the article itself that is certainly suggestive but doesn't seem to come out and openly state that this was written by GPT-3. Finally I clicked on the author's name and see a list of several articles but no disclaimer that this author is a bot.
