Google doesn't care because they figured out no one will hold them accountable any more. The US regulatory authorities DGAF ever since Lina Khan exited the picture and the EU regulatory authorities might have the legal basis to hold Bi

It's still questionable. Similar to car manufacturers or IKEA, who all have their own banks, Apple has an incentive to hand out credit to people who should not get it, increasing the likelihood of people getting underwater with their d

Mastodon is just as bad, it suffers from the same problem as most of the Fediverse it inspired, admins of large instances bitchfighting with one another and holding their users hostage...

"Cursor" and "Copilot" are generic words sadly that you may find in other unrelated contexts, I'd take these out, and "prompt" is regularly used in headlines regarding political news.

Nah not on this thread but in general, you'll always find at least one person prompting "summarize this article" and regurgitating the slop into the comment section.

Reddit has been thoroughly contaminated by AI slop as well. In the tech and sysadmin subs, even in the maker subs in general, there is sooooooo much stuff at least made with AI.

Nope. If you email hn@ycombinator.com with the subject "second chance pool" and it is not your submission , there is a very high chance one of the lovely mods will take the submission and second-chance it. Often enough, they even

I'd also SERIOUSLY ask for an "LLM generated" flag in addition to normal flags - on both comments and submissions, that is. Obvious slop comments thankfully already get flagged or downvoted in the hell they belong, but the su

Yeah, but usually, we pay for stuff with taxes and we benefit. I wouldn't have much of a problem if China and India would just steal our stuff to benefit their own population - given the widespread poverty there, that's develo

Still heavily AI contaminated. The random bold formatting is as good a tell as it gets. It's high time that Github creates a disclosure flag for LLM usage - it's already mandated in the EU for some kinds of media.
