Gee, I wonder if HN became this way because of AI shaking the ground they walked on after years of dedication and study? And on top of that, doing a shit job of everything it touches, causing massive paranoia in every corner of the internet, that place we all live now? Gosh I wonder why!?!?
The pro-ai posts here have got to be 50% bots, i'm convinced. I have yet to see a single artefact of AI that was remotely impressive. Fancy markov chains do not intelligence make.
It blows my mind to hear from friends in my home state of FL (miami), telling me about all the people moving down there and 95 becomming even more gridlocked daily. I left 20+ years ago because the summers were literally dangerous to my health.

Word. But here we have about 300 sweaty nerds claiming 'AI training is like learning' and similarly misguided hogwash. Not sure how such a culture war can be won against people with no regard for intellectual property, the beauty of art and a fleet of propaganda chatbots (yes, I'm dying on that conspiracy theory hill any day).
