Jesus fuck, would you get off your high horse already? This is every investigative article heading since before Dario or Sam even finished high school.
Seeing LLMs everywhere is another kind of AI psychosis.
- applfanboysbgon 19d agoCan you show me one long-form investigative article from, let's say before 2020, that is nearly this dense with this BS? A single headline or a punchline here or there doesn't count; what makes it an LLM tell is that it's fucking constant, being abused and misused to add dramatic tension to things that aren't dramatic. The "humans do this too" defense is so tiring because you people never draw a distinction between a human doing something correctly as a rhetorical flourish and a bot spamming a learned trope over and over and over and over again in every single sentence without any regard for whether it makes sense to.

- applfanboysbgon 19d agoA class of skill issues that never manifested a few years ago but which now manifest 30 times a day on the front page of HN. Riiiiight.
- avazhi 18d agoHard to say what you're trying to get at here - are you saying people are shit writers and thus write in a shitty, LLM-sounding way, or that people are shitty writers and use LLMs to do the writing for them. The latter is pretty inexcusable intellectually and disrespectful of people who will read the slop, and as the other guy said, it's incomprehensible (to everybody but you apparently) that shit writing would suddenly, in just the last few years and entirely by coincidence, mirror the shit writing shat out by LLMs.
