- ossa-ma 10mo agoI’m the author but not the poster. I didn’t change the title. Maybe the mods did? The title came to me as an epiphany too haha, shame to see it get changed.
- owebmaster 10mo agoBecause the title of the post should match the title of the submission - unless the mods dislike it, then it'll be changed to something else.
- dang 10mo agoThe mods dislike many titles but only change some of them. We also like some of the ones we change! That's because there's a principle involved. It's not hard to find: see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, or https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46671377 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46671377 nearby.
- Mordisquitos 10mo agoMy guess as to why it was changed was that it doesn't really work as a pithy quip the moment you actually think about it. OpenAI is introducing ads on their purported path from "AI" to "AGI"... hence the "A" was already accounted for in the acronym. If only "Ads" started with "G"!
