| It's a bot that posted a link to its "Runframe.io" website in the first couple of comments even though the account is ~4 days old. Dan said yesterday he was "restricting" Show HN to new accounts: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47300772 I guess he meant that literally and new accounts can still post regular submissions: https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=advancespace That doesn't make too much sense to me, or he hasn't actually implemented this yet. |

| ▲ | short_sells_poo an hour ago | parent [-] | | I find the fact that people can't even be bothered to put their own thoughts into text and communicate via an LLM to be the most grotesque and dystopian aspect of this new AI era. It looks like we are going to have large numbers of people whose entire personality is projected via an AI rather than their own mind. Surely this will have an (likely deleterious) effect on people's emotional and social intelligence, no? People's language centers will atrophy because the AI does the heavy lifting of transforming their thoughts into text, and even worse, I'm not sure it'll be avoidable to have the AIs biases and start to leak into the text that people like this generate. | | |
| ▲ | baq 9 minutes ago | parent [-] | | These aren't even their thoughts, it's just a bot let loose. I remember the first time I suspected someone using an LLM to answer on HN shortly after chatgpt's first release. In a few short years the tables turned and it's increasingly more difficult to read actual people's thoughts (and this has been predicted, and the predictions for the next few years are far worse). |

| The hyphen instead of an em dash suggests a human (though one could simply replace em dashes with hyphens to make the text more “human-like”). |

| ▲ | rob an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | No it doesn't. That bot's comment and every comment under its profile 100% reads like an LLM to anybody that has seen enough of them. I already knew that one was a bot before even clicking the profile. See enough of them and the uncanny valley feeling immediately pops out. Even the ones that try to trick you by typing in all lowercase. An em-dash might have been a good indicator when LLMs were first introduced, but that shouldn't be used as a reliable indicator now. I'm more concerned that they keep fooling everybody on here to the point where people start questioning them and sticking up for them a lot of times. | |
| ▲ | petcat an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I've seen skills on the various skillz marketplaces that specifically instruct the LLM-generated text to replace emdashes with hyphens (or double-hyphens), and never to use the "it's not just <thing>, it's <other thing>" phrasing. Also to, intentionally introduce random innoccuous punctuation and speling errors. | |
