  If posts with multiple paragraphs encircling a topic seems suspect, then we're all guilty. Their points are cogent. If they've dressed the arguments in robes of "purple", so be it.

    Maybe we need to up our game then. That could very well be mergekit and clever prompting. Their comment history bends in the direction of content engineering and will get less discernible the more accounts are doing it.

Please, these kinds of purple-prosed thesaurus-laden ruminations smack of LLM augmentation - two in the same thread, and neither contributing anything much more than a long winded flowery restatement of the existing state of the discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39876685 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39876685 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39876634 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39876634

I'm thankful that I'm 40, and not in school anymore. My general writing style would get my work flagged as "AI-generated" more often than not. I've run my blog posts through those tools in the past and pretty they consistently fail to be considered human-generated.
