> Why write in the open if you write for a black box? The irony of this is two fold. Everyone on this thread is writing comments in the open that is training the black box. But one step further, none of us owns the content we write on HN. Since the comment thread is considered a shared tapestry, we are not allowed to delete comments which are more than a day old. And yet we continue to write these comments. > we may see much less information shared. We’re hardwired to interact with other members of our species. We’re not going to stop simply because someone might monetise our thoughts indirectly.
