>But that's my 2 cents.

Or is it really ChatGPTs 2 cents? Copy-pasting LLM responses is as useful as posting a "let me google that for you" link. It's a lazy response at a minimum.

It’s better than that because it includes the content - more akin to searching and putting the result you find in the comments as a guess.

The anti AI HN comments are the new anti Bitcoin - your replies are much worse than someone sharing the gpt output.

I would disagree. It's been shown recently how over-use of AI impacts cognition; "use it or lose it" mostly. I immediately ignore any "I asked ChatGPT..." comments because I do not know the prompt used, if the claims were verified by the poster, or the quality of the sources. If you want to offload your critical thinking to a black-box model, be my guest.

A google link at least allows me to verify sources and use my brain.

From https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33950747 : "...HN has never allowed bots or generated comments. If we have to, we'll add that explicitly to https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, but I'd say it already follows from the rules that are in there. ..."

These aren't anti-AI comments. We're on a forum talking person to person. It is antithetical to just spout "AI said this" repeatedly when the entire point of this place is human discourse.

It's like having a group conversation in person and one member of the group contributes nothing but things they read off Google.

		I'd much rather talk to an AI than have this sort of human discourse.

		Hm good point. Okay, So if I may ask, What would be the more correct response imo. Should they have searched it and kept the information to themselves? Or should they have done additional research after asking AI(like looking into its sources) and tried confirming it and actually listing us the sources of their discoveries and then disclose that they used AI. I generally feel like they wanted to share the information but I mean :/ I'd be actually interested as to what you offer him to do actually if he was really curious and did search chatgpt. I always feel like knowledge should be open and that just saying that knowledge out loud doesn't hurt but I do agree with your point too wholeheartedly so its nuanced imo.
