FWIW as someone who sadly has about 10% of his brain constantly engaged in AI detection when I read HN, absolutely nothing about the announcement struck me as feeling AI generated.
(I feel guilty for pointing it out but I guess it's actually a compliment in this context: I even saw a beautifully reassuring mis-conjugated verb elsewhere on the website. I wonder if LLMs will have to start injecting these errors to give us an authentic feel. Maybe they already have).
I think we are at a point now where just coz AI is so prevalent, every post on any programming forum will have at least one comment saying "AI slop".
Read the text of the HN post. If it’s not AI slop, then it’s a canonical example of the training data that produces the slop.
