30% of the articles on this forum are covert LLM advertising
- wulfstan 1y agoGood, it's not just me. I guess it's not a massive surprise given it's an HN forum and a reasonable percentage of HN candidates are doing LLM/AI stuff in recent cohorts, but it still means I have to apply a very big filter every time I open an article and people wax lyrical about how amazing Claude-GPT-super-codez is and how it has made them twice the engineer they were yesterday at the bargain price of $200 a month... May it all die in a fire very soon. Butlerian jihad now.
- jennyholzer 1y agoI agree. Burn the machines-that-think. To anyone reading, if you work on LLM software, I hope that your business fails.
- fragmede 1y agoEvery single last link here is some form of an advertisement, why single out LLM-related ads?
- jennyholzer 1y agobecause the underlying technology is so egregiously overhyped in relation to the quality of the services offered
- fragmede 1y agoSure, but why this technology. It's not like that's the first time that's happened, and it won't be the last.
