This platform sees high front page placement / hundreds of votes for AI-written … uh sorry I mean “I used the AI to clean up my notes” … content daily.
I have an allergic reaction to it and flag, but clearly a majority of the hn voting population appreciates it, so if it isn’t banned it will continue.
- SchemaLoad 10mo agoI think the majority of HN users don't even read the article and just use the headline as a conversation starter.
- twoodfin 10mo agoThat’s probably right; you can often spot an LLM-assisted post from the overly dramatic title. Anecdotally, though, these articles seem to have a disproportionate number of, “Wow, this article is so interesting & insightful”-class comments. I really have come around to accepting that a big part of the audience here enjoys what LLM’s produce given hn-ish prompts. I’d rather see the prompt! Oh look, another one this morning at #3: https://www.simplethread.com/redis-solidqueue/ https://www.simplethread.com/redis-solidqueue/
- tomjen3 10mo agoI use writing to think - I also happen to be really good at typing so fast my hands don't coordinate. And I am a terrible speller. If I wanted to publish my writing, people would focus on that, and not the content of the writing. If I run it through Kimi K2, people will focus on my ideas.
