What did I just half read??

  Guy gets in on the ground floor of gaming Wikipedia for political purposes. Unsurprisingly, this “confession” comes from the left side of the spectrum, however. It is only “fictional” in the sense that he changed names/topics. And connects it to ChatGPT as the endpoint of this phenomena.

      Thank you. Extremely ironic timing to get that piece flagged after nothing more than a link to a Wikipedia page so biased it’s not even worth responding to. Note how these censors and fanboys offer zero factual discrepancies whatsoever. They just can’t stand the idea of questioning their worldview. I, for one, posted that Signal piece even though I have contributed to them.

        I would be extremely shocked if HN itself doesn't run a process to detect certain topics.

          Certainly possible. But fragile libs (not talking about actual lefties) are pretty good at censoring on their own.
