"Claude 3.7"?
- jampa 14d agoI asked Claude to fix the grammar of my comment, and it changed "I am using 3.7 for" to "I've been using Claude 3.7", so they sneaked their own name on it.
- trial3 14d agoincredible. further evidence supporting my personal stance to never ever let an LLM write or edit my writing intended for another human being to read. this is all me, baby
- dymk 14d agoyou didn’t even read your comment before you posted it?
- jampa 14d agoEh that one is on me, if I think too much about my HN comment I end up deleting before posting it. I rely on the 1 min `delay` set in the profile page to fix before it goes live, but for some reason this time it was set to 0.
- BeetleB 14d ago1. That's a wild conclusion from his comment! Understand that it's not an "either/or". 2. I'd wager the majority of HN commenters don't read their own comment before posting (pre-LLM days).
- fc417fc802 14d agoI can read my own comment twice over and still somehow miss seemingly obvious wording errors.
- BeetleB 14d agoAnd if you do a 3rd pass with an LLM, people will accuse of you not reading your own comment...
- drusepth 14d agoOnce you've written something, it's incredibly easy to overlook minute changes to the text. See: why authors wait days, weeks, or even months before editing what they've written (or, if you're more interested: cognitive regression, inattentional blindness, and the effects of misdirected saccades).
- dymk 14d agoHe didn’t write it.
- drusepth 14d ago> I asked Claude to fix the grammar of my comment I read this to mean he wrote the comment, then asked Claude to fix the grammar (as many ESL speakers do). Sounds to me like he did write it.
- dymk 14d agoThen I think you read it wrong, because you don't make that mistake unless you copy-paste your comment out of a Claude window and into the comment box.
- jamiek88 14d agoA two paragraph hacker comment? You burned carbon for that?
