- chromacity 6mo agoWhat's especially frustrating is that the posts about AI are also disproportionately written by AI. I can sort of understand that people who are very enthusiastic about LLMs also use them for blogging. But the most bizarre part is that a lot of anti-AI opinion pieces are LLM-generated too. Either cynical click-sploitation or extreme hypocrisy.

- olalonde 6mo agoThey're now paying and training people to produce more AI doom slop, so it's only going to get worse: https://www.plzdontkillus.com/ https://www.plzdontkillus.com/
- otterley 6mo agoThere is a bright side, though: At least we’ve stopped talking about crypto.

- keanebean86 6mo agoThere was also 15 "why I replaced tredge.Js with slametic.js" posts a day.
- postalcoder 6mo agoIt doesn't have to be that way. Filter it out! https://hcker.news/?ai=exclude https://hcker.news/?ai=exclude
- classified 6mo agoIt's shocking how few articles remain after draining the AI cesspit.
- ghexplore 6mo agoFor me the biggest loss was the explore tabs on github, particularly the trending repositories. You used to be able to go there and find a trendy project or two. Nowadays, either it is something with an outstanding presentation like copyparty, or it's all just AI and AI serving schlock.
- thefz 6mo agoI filtered out most of the buzzwords in my RSS reader and HN has gone back to being semi-enjoyable.
- classified 6mo agoPlease share your prompt.
- shantnutiwari 6mo agoReddit's /r/programming banned all AI related posts temporarily. And I must admit, it made the place more interesting. Maybe have AI Tuesdays, where you only post AI crap every Tuesday?
