Thanks ChatGPT, good of you to let us know.

  There are so many ChatGPT responses in this thread, it’s giving me a headache.

    Yep. Real "dead internet theory" vibes, really sad to see.

      It’s been very noticeable for about a year now, but the last few months is absolutely terrible. I wonder if clawdbot has anything to do with it.

      my hypothesis is that chatgpt was trained on the internet, and useful technical answers on the internet were posted by autistic people. who else would spend their time learning and then rushing to answer such things the moment they get their chance to shine? so chatgpt is basically pure distilled autism, which is why it sounds so familiar.

  I'm curious what makes that obviously llm? As far as I can tell it was a short and fairly benign statement with little scope to give away llm-ness?

    Just as bad if it's human. No information has been shared. The writer has turned idle wondering into prose: > Once threads actually run concurrently, libraries (which?) that never needed locking (contradiction?) could (will they or won't they?) start hitting race conditions in surprising (go on, surprise me) places.

    It's just the equivalent of that one student restating what the teacher just said with no added value

    It was an essentially pointless platitude about the GIL from a very new account not really related to the article, and all comments from this account are the same: top level comments with lots of em-dashes that are just a vague piece of pablum somewhat related to the subject. If it was just this comment, sure, it could be possible it's a rather uninteresting human. But given the history, this account is pure AI slop.
