> the general hacker news group think about AI

I’m surprised to see this. From my perspective, reading comments and seeing which posts rise to the top, HN as a whole seems pretty bullish on the tech as whole…

I think there might also just be a vocal minority and/or some astroturfing hyping AI coding around hackernews. I personally keep trying all the latest shit and always stop using it, because it actively slows me down.

It’s changing over time. When copilot came out a few years ago, people were very against it due to it being trained oh GitHub codebase. Now there’s more support around it.

We don't want to admit it but HN has similar characteristics as many other platforms; echo chamber / group think. You see it over and over again.

HN participants (generally speaking) are against: AI, Crypto, HFT. I've worked in 2/3 of these industries so have first hand experience. My basic summary is that the average commenter here has a lot of misinformation on these topics (as a insider).
