If I found my posts were blocked because some AI said I wasn't posting correctly I'd leave and never come back[1]. The chilling effect this would have on discussions here would have a much more detrimental impact than any benefit from preventing bad posts.
[1] Some people might argue this is a benefit.
- morceauxdebois 5y agoYour posts wouldnt be blocked, you would have to verify that you have read the article first before posting.
- onion2k 5y agoBy that you mean you'd have to have read the article and interpreted in the manner by which the HN AI has accepted, right? HN is often accused of being a 'hive mind' of users with homogenous opinions already. Making people assert that they've read the article, and understood it within a set of constraints, could remove a lot of nuance and variation. Plus, I hardly ever read the articles.
